Meeting time: 10:30am at the put-in in Watertown.
More details to come on the post this evening (Dan will post the link to the location and Bastien is calling to get the release time).
There is a play spot in Watertown at the put in... I hear it is a great wave!
We will stay there a while, then head down and do the river.
This river can be done in a playboat and in a creekboat... I am going to try my mamba on the rock slide there!!
Aproximately 2.5hr drive.
Carpooling can be arranged between participants (leaving Ottawa around 8am)

PLAYBOATING RIVER
the release time its at 11:00am
so for people who try a new playboating river its a good way for practise move on a good playspot.
and practise boof on a waterfall 15 feets we can do the waterfall few times.
its a beginner river ( except the *poop chute* and the Glen park falls rapids which can walk easy)
whit a wonderful CANYON so if you want pratice and get a lot of new tricks its the good river.
WATERTOWN USA NEED PASSPORT.

Sign me up! Now to decide if I should bring my Jackson Fun or my Dagger Nomad....

-
When we did a few weeks ago, we were in playboats, ran the falls etc. without problem. If you bring a big boat, you'll miss playing on an amazing wave right at the put-in. --C.
-
10-4, playboat it is.

Shit, poor Caro. That doesn't sound like much fun.
I won't expect her to show up.... I'm sure she'll let us know once she has the time.
Merci Daniel pour l'info. Vous prenez le camion encore?
Je vais prendre mon auto... donc je ne sais pas si quelqu'un d'autre veux embarquer... Bastien?
-
Je suis de Kingston Luc
-
Je savais que tu vivais ? Kingston, mais je pensais c'?tait en chemin. Je vien de regarder la carte, puis je vois ce que tu veux dire. haha
C'est beau, je vais m'arranger avec mon auto :)

Daniel

Aussi bien de venir chez nous. J'habite ? 82 croissant Chesapeake, Nepean. Je suis tout pr?s de l'autoroute 416.... donc plus facile que Fallowfield.
D'accord? Si vous prenez une auto, je peux mettre mon kayak sur votre auto.... si vous prenez le camion, on peu prendre mon auto et ?conomiser sur l'essence.
Mais je suis pr?t ? faire ce qui est le plus facile pour tout le monde. Laisse-moi savoir. Puis 8h c'est beau!

Salut,
Oui, je suis correcte! Je magasine pour une nouvelle auto... Toyota Yaris hatchback (2007-2010) ou Matrix dans les m?mes ann?e. Je check cela aujourd'hui, je vais aller voir chez MegaAuto cet apr?s-midi!
Par contre: je ne peux r?cup?rer mes choses qui sont dans la voiture avant mardi car c'est juste ouvert de 8 ? 16:30... chez Aylmer collision... et ma pagaie est dans la voiture!
Je crois vouloir pagayer demain, mais il se peut que je prenne encore du temps pour magasiner ma nouvelle voiture, je vous tiens au courant ce soir au plus tard, mais si je viens, pourrais-je emprunter la pagaie de l'un d'entre vous?
Merci!!
Caroline
-
Content d'entendre que tu es bien!
Malheureusement j'ai seulement une pagaie. Donc je ne pourrai pas t'aider.
-
Pas de probl?me, merci Luc!
Je ne suis pas certaine encore si je pagaie :-)
J'ai mal au dos et ? la t?te!!

Caroline, glad to hear that it was just the car that got hurt! If you are considering a Matrix, I would recommend that you stick with the first generation of Matrixs (2003-2008) as these are more utilitarian than the newer version. Also the Pontiac Vibe is pretty much the same car; Toyota motor and parts, but with a Pontiac exterior finish. That finish less often comes with the bling (side skirts etc) that lowers a cars clearance.
I'm a maybe for the Black right now and will figure that out later.

Oui je peut te pr?t?e une pagaie caro

Merci Bast! Je suis OK: je vais emprunter une pagaie ? Dan!
Thanks Dave: I am buying a Yaris Hatchback 2008, blue... Same car as Daniel (maybe not the year though!)
-
So... I have room in my car for another person. If Caroline car pools with Daniel/Marc, I can swing by Luc's place and pick him up, him and his waiver...
Who's going then? --C.
-
I'd be good with that. My wife would definitely enjoy having the car.
I actually mailed the waiver on Friday through work (but it won't go out until Monday)... but I could just sign another one if you prefer having it faster.
-
Not paddling tomorrow... will enjoy a restful day!
Looks like I will have to post another trip to the black!!
Caroline
-
with me, Benoit Duclos (solo canoe) and Marc G. and
maybe Luc Potvin(solo canoe )but he is not sure yet
Bastien will be there maybe with Daniel ?
It will be a fun day :)
