Apparently, the two outfitters we spoke to don't like the weld idea for some reason. As for the repair glue that is supposed to work, no one carries it and we would have to order it. Therefore, there is no way to order, repair, and allow to cure before our trip. The outfitter in Indy swears that JB Weld will work. He said the worst case scenario is that this winter it will crack open. So, I think we are going to try that, at least to get us through this trip.
JB Weld? That will probably work. Not sure why anyone would be against plastic welding though. Hey as long as it you can repair it, who cares?
I am hoping that maybe this fall to go to Nordhouse this fall.
Yes, pictured Rocks is what I meant. We decided against that and Nordhouse because we really don't have any experience on that type of water. We have always been on smaller lakes and rivers. I hope to go up to Lake Michigan for a day trip to see how bad it is. If it goes well, I would like to either go to the boundry waters or Nordhouse this fall. Maybe Pictured Rocks next year.
Can't really blame you. Kayaking on the Great Lakes is different than a small river or lake. They are more like inland seas than lakes in many respects. Doing the Pictured Rocks by kayak or canoe would be extremely cool by the way.
