Which way does the blunt end of a steamline strut face Ben???..and the
pointy end?

That was another myth I was always told... the real reason apparently is it
can't slip out thru the straps if the narrow end is at the back! lol

Impressive that the Rebel hardly cares about that big thing on there. Why
did you face the canoe backward instead of forward? Seems drag would be
slightly less with that transom in the back.

Anyway, it's a pretty sight and one more great thing to look forward to.
So Thanks!!

I think a 14 'r might block too much Stabilizer air flow. It may be
alright
though. I tried Leah's 16 canoe... but it was too long period.

As for what I have... I've been trying to buy it off my 75 year old AME
for
a few years. He finally decided he could part with it. It's 20+ years old
and still never seen water! It's light/aluminum and with the wide transom
more stable than a normal canoe.

reason
or was it just something that found you? I have a 14' sportspal canoe
at
camp but I think I'd rather get a small kayak for fishing from.
