Thank you! You guys built one hell of a boat here ⚓️ We absolutely love our LX420.

Appreciate the advice, Howard! I’ll have to check out Howe Sound next time or head further up the arm. Hopefully see you out there!

Thanks for watching! 🙌🏻

Beautiful spot for it! Any tips on finding the prawns? Haha 😂

Cheers, Chris! Yes it is the same waterfall from my previous video. This inlet is our local waterway, so we’re out here quite often when the weathers not too favourable further out. Tough to complain haha

Hey Chris! Hope you’re doing well. Glad to be back at it! It was a great summer. Plenty of down time to recharge and hang out with Murphy. Thanks again for watching and supporting the channel.

You can’t win them all but it was a great day! 🦀

Next time hopefully🤞🏻 Thanks for watching!

😂😂😂😂 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

😂😂😂😂 they make you work for it that’s for sure!

Yep, definitely agree that the down options are getting a lot better at handling moisture. Thanks for watching!

😂😂😂😂 it’s not pretty but it gets the job done! It’s incredible up there! Definitely recommend going up for a rip. Especially if you’ve already got a SIB. Perfect playground for it. We’re planning to do the same next summer. Thanks for watching!

@@cedarcabinsociety I'm guessing it gets busy up there during the summer. You've been in some beautiful areas. Looking into exploring some of the other areas in your videos. Keep them coming...

Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it. We did 2 or 3 self-guided trips on the paddleboards before this to prepare and test gear. The conditions in Howe Sound can change quickly, so I’d definitely recommend getting some experience crossing open water channels before you tackle this.

I’m afraid I don’t unfortunately. I haven’t really spent much time over there yet.

😂😂😂😂

Thanks for watching! I have a Stryker LX420 and it’s 14ft in length. I had a 6HP merc on it in this video but I’ve since upgraded to a 20HP electric start. It’s a rocket ship with a 20 on it, so a 30 must have been real fun to rip around in. I know exactly what you mean about folding it up. 😅 The highfields are a really great bit kit too. I’d love to try one of them at some point.

It definitely can be but it mostly depends on the weight of the tarp being used. The bivy bag weighs ~500g, so if you can keep the weight of the tarp down it’ll come in under 1kg total. I still use lightweight tents more than this setup but that’s mostly because my dog likes to sleep inside the tent with me 😂

Thanks so much for watching!

Thank you!

Thanks for watching! I haven’t had chance to fish the capilano yet this year, so I can’t say if it’s a good season or not unfortunately. I fished it at first light last year and had some success, so I’d try that. For spots, I’d start just below the hatchery at cable pool. Always check the river level before you go though, as capilano is dam controlled and the river can rise unexpectedly.

@@cedarcabinsocietyWhere is the cable pool by the hatchery? 😊

It’s directly under the bride right below the hatchery.

@@cedarcabinsociety Thank you sir! Wondering where did you parked? 😊

@@NewFisher no worries! there’s a car park attached the to hatchery but if you go at sunrise you’ll need to park just before the barrier and walk the rest of the way down.

Thanks for watching! Yes, they are both public docks. I launched at Cates Park in North Vancouver and stopped for lunch at Twin Islands Provincial Park.

@@cedarcabinsociety Thanks. I thought I recognized Cates Park. But I havent stopped at that island before. I'm looking forward to trying it.

Definitely agree! I’ve had much better luck at the mouth of the Cap too. Hoping to get back out again shortly. Tight lines!

Thanks for watching! I believe the seems are glued but I’m not 100% sure on that. It’s a great little inflatable for calm waters and sandy beaches but I wouldn’t trust it in anything more than that. I’ve since upgraded to a more rugged and versatile inflatable boat by a local company called Stryker, so I’m getting the Paddleski ready to sell.

@@cedarcabinsociety Sounds good I’ve been doing some research on another brand called True Kit they’re Tactician Model looks like a good inflatable 😎🍻

@@user-ktm890rider I’ve heard of that brand but not that model. I’ll have to check it out!

No problem at all! The dehydrated meals are by no means cheap, so I try to give folks as much info as I can to help before they buy.

Thanks so much for watching! I definitely get tired of doing the back to back remote camping trips. I don’t currently have anywhere to store a trailer, so I have to build and break the boat down before and after every trip, which can be very taxing. I love doing these trips though, so it always keeps me coming back for more.

Thanks so much for watching! Glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks for watching! I’m actually not sure if you need a reservation for summit camping but my best guess is yes.

Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it

It’s an incredible area! You won’t regret it

Because the head of the bivy can remain open and unzipped while still being protected from inclement weather

@@cedarcabinsociety that’s really cool! thank you!

No worries!

Wow thanks so much! That’s made my day 🙌🏻 Great to have you with us.

Hahah I’ve almost done that a few times with the paddle 🤦‍♂️😅 I certainly like to think she’s the happiest dog in the world. It makes it all worth while seeing her ripping around the bush and enjoying life. Thanks again for watching!

Thanks for letting me know! I didn’t know that.

@@cedarcabinsociety Np. Be careful when you eat them. They’re not like raspberries, the seeds are hard as stone. Can easily break a tooth!

Hey - thanks for watching! I really love my paddleski as a solo boat for calm waters/lakes, as I think this is where it performs at its best. Unfortunately, since I purchased it, my needs have changed a lot and I now need more space to bring my dog, gf and gear along on adventures. I also like to salmon fish locally using heavier down-riggers that the paddleski can’t support, so having a more stable and rugged boat that handles ocean swell better gives me more peace of mind. Regarding the paddling experience, it’s doable for short distances (<5km) but personally I wouldn’t use it without an outboard or trolling motor, as it can be quite challenging to handle when the wind kicks up. I think it works best with a combo of both to cover distance on the motor and get in shallow using the paddle.

Cheers, glad you enjoyed it. We’re so spoiled for epic terrain up here in the PNW and awesome to hear about your row boat adventures with your doggo. I’m really sorry your pups not with you anymore. I know I’ll be an absolute mess when that day comes. Very happy to hear its bringing back good memories though and great to have you onboard.

Thank you 🙌🏻

Hahaha one of these days I’ll get consistent with my uploads lol. I’d better make it longer next time if we’re on company time 🤣

Cheers mate! That means a lot. Thanks so much for watching as always. We need to get you out here for one of these trips!

Thanks so much for watching! Glad you enjoyed it 🙌🏻

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it!

No worries - thanks for watching!

Ah that sucks! Sorry to hear that. I’m sure it will make someone very happy wherever it showed up next.

Personal preference mainly. It’s nice to mix it up from time to time.

Not unique at all... best of both worlds, plus if it's raining, you can set up camp underneath the tarp. Depends on what type of experience you're looking for...

Tarps are nice and roomy and way less isolating than a tent. Not right for all occasions of course but a very nice alternative.
