Hiya Folks
Heres a couple of piccies of a recent wee Scotish break

Loch Ken looking like a mill pond
It was a lovely couple of days had the site all to myself

The Eno is a great little boat.

This little boat is not quite a year old but has already given Me a thousand
wonderful memories

G'day Zeb,
I love that boat mate. beautiful piccies too. \\BTW, Have you considered building a removeable seat base and using a sit backer seat?
I reckon they are the bees knees. Very comfortable and can be used as a camp seat when you get to where you want to go. even better, they can go from canoe to canoe with only the need to ever build one seat.

Hiya fellas
Mick,I like to kneel usually but I used that dry bag cos I hurt My back the day before I went(I was buggered if I was calling the trip off

)but I do like the idea of the dual purpose seat for camp too.

Is there any info on the removable base anywhere?
Matt, feel free to use any pictures

Shes a lovely little boat that has given Me and My Family hours of fun.

Zeb,
All I did was have a look at Chuck's folding pirogue seat - made a base similar, and strapped on one of Matt's Sit Backer chairs.

Just make the bottom of the seat and forget the back when using the Sit Backer. Same thing I have for the Freedom 15 when I use it.
Nice thing about that combination , it can be used anywhere , even in your boat.

I camped for three days,It was an official campsite but as luck would have it I was the only one there
I had originally planned to explore the islands and camp on one or two of them but with my dodgey back I thought the camp site was the safest option.
Its a beautiful loch,nine miles long ,all kinds of wild life to watch(I took a book to read and never even opened it)
P.S. Mick I talked to a guy last summer who pulled a twenty eight pound pike out of there.

Zeb,
I'm betting that you felt a LOT better after that trip. Good medicine!
