That PM had a lot of very good ideas. The multiple starting location was an awesome idea, when I first schemed this up I didn't think there would be large amount of people crazy enough to try it and didn't envision more than one canoe.

This is terrific!

I have to gather more info on Great Lakes islands destinations and such. Also I should practice with a smaller dugout to get an estimate on how long it will take to carve a bigger one.

After we're done with the event up here there has been interest expressed in moving the canoe to Florida and going in the gulf to an island. This could involve other people that couldn't make the event up here.

I'll post more later- my head is still spinning.
