Just purchased a used Coleman 15' Ram X canoe for some recreational use. My friend and I took it on the back bays of Berlin Lake by Bedell Road. Man it was a little tippy. Tippy like you could go in. In the summer I wouldn't mind but Sunday it was a little cold around 3pm. Anyways does anyone have any suggestions for home built outriggers? I'd be interested. I'd like to paddle on the Chili event in December buit wouldn't want to tip it. Beginners luck?? I'll leave you with a thought. I had my wallet on me while paddling Sunday and I said to my buddy geez I should've left my wallet in the truck. My friend said no you did the right thing in bringing it. I said if we tip this dang canoe my wallet will get wet. My friend said don't worry about it if we tip the good thing is that they'll be able to determine who you were! :) Wardie
