  • Boat 4 sale
    Hi

    Selling my Wavesport 64X – Bright Green and gorgeous.

    Bought it in September and love it but Greyhound wants to charge me $300 to ship it to BC for the summer. Going to buy the exact same boat once I get to Van Isle. It’s awesome and the best part is it isn’t a Jackson!

    $800

  • Lantz Falls
    I went to scout out Lantz Falls on Solomon Brook. The on line pics make it look very runnable. The pool below is plenty deep according to the people who live near it. The lead in is not pretty. Well, it’s pretty, but not great for getting lined up.

    Maybe with a lot more water, it would be better.

  • "Man presumed drowned after canoe overturns" (today’s The Chronicle Herald)
    Man presumed drowned after canoe overturns
    May 6, 2012 – 7:54am By THE CHRONICLE HERALD
    UPDATED 5:50 a.m. Monday

    A 41-year-old man was presumed drowned after a canoeing acci­dent Saturday evening on Spec­tacle Lake, near East Chester.

    Lunenburg County RCMP began searching for the missing man after a 911 call at about 7:15 p.m. Saturday, the force said in a news release early Sunday.

  • St. Andrews River (Colchester Co.) today
    Two of us had a neat trip down the lower St. Andrews River, maybe 10 km starting near the Town of Stewiacke at the end of –you guessed it– St. Andrews River Rd. We finished about 10 km downstream at the Hwy. 224 bridge, within sight of the Shubenacadie River.

    We knew the water level would be low, as it has an on-line flow gauge, which today read 1.62 m. We had to line our canoe through most of the gravelly riffles, but enjoyed all the stillwaters. We portaged the massive log jam on river right, but there were a few more fallen trees blocking the river just below the big jam.
