    Default WTB Canoe or two kayaks

    I'm looking for a canoe or two kayaks.

    What ya' have? I live in Lake City so general cave country area would be best.

    Why not two canoes and make yourself a cat-a-canoe?

    Wouldn't that be a cat-a-moron?

    diving out of a canoe is challenging enough, I can't imagine what diving out of a Kayak would be like, course I'm old too.

    It's practiced fairly often on the west coast. There is even a book on diving out of a kayak. I guess it's not so bad once you get the ingress/egress technique down.

    I got a Pelican 15.5 that I have been thinking of selling, but I am about 3 hrs south.

    Easy to dive out of them. Paddle up to bank, unload gear, dive, reload, push off, paddle home.

    Yup - Tracy and I have used kayaks for diving a few times, and that's just the way we did it.

    That is fine, if you have permission to go on the bank

    And if there is a bank, and not a limestone wall. Course I came very close to falling out of my little boat last Sun. when I had my dry suit covering my eyes so nothings perfect I guess.
