Placid Boat Works Rapidfire.

Post by Hank »

This is a repost.
A couple pics of a nice paddling canoe. Certainly not for everyone but if you like to paddle and want to spoil yourself, what the hek, I am worth it!!! :salute:
Enjoy the pics for what they are, merely pics.

That shore is a purty boat you got there Hank, just needs a bigger decal.

Alomst looks like it changes colors in different lighting conditions.

Indeed it does Krash. The sunlight really brings that out. In low light it just looks generic green.

When I was younger, I had different topics in my dreams. Nowadays it is that canoe. The result is the same.....

Nice.. but You fish with the crate in front of you? Doesn't it obstruct vision and casting?

The crate was not permanently attached. I use and paddle a few different botes so I attach the rod holders to the crate and just sit it inside the bote I am using for that day. I actually found it paddled better with it all the way forward but then I did not have my cooler with me that morning for counterbalance or the cooler would have had front row, :cool:

I have developed a new system. Don't know why I never thought of it before.
Buy stuff, keep it instead of selling it, thereby creating a need for a bigger garage for more stuff. :shock:
