Very impressive. Just yesterday I was reorganizing all my gear (how did I get so much???) and there was my roll of duct tape. I put it in the "emergency" box. I also have a small roll of flex tape that I think I'll start taking as well.
Thanks for this report.
Thanks for this report.
We all have to believe in something. I believe I'll go paddle.

Did same one trip, snapped a bending branches in half first day in and spliced it together with gorilla tape. Had a custom double bent shaft paddle the rest of the trip. Bought me a $17 super light aluminum shaft paddle as a replacement and would never go back to the over priced one again. Nicely played. Yeah, that’s a shorty canoe, did you break that in half too. Haha just kidding.

Good work on that repair! I broke a custom, triple-bend paddle on Malberg a couple years ago on a barely-submerged rock that I failed to see. After getting over my heart break (it was and still is my favorite paddle I've ever made) I casually reached forward, released the BDB from my two spare paddles and continued paddling with the bent one.
I've dropped/slipped/lost grip/bumped into the water while fighting a fish so many times while paddling solo I don't think I'll ever get in a solo boat with just one paddle, in fact I usually have 3 in a solo and always 3 in a tandem. How many people here paddle a solo canoe with only one paddle in the boat?
