How do you guys manage the wind? My barge goes flying in even light breezes so it's hard to do anything other than head straight into the wind without trolling pretty fast...

Sometimes I just paddle to stay more or less in one spot if it's where I want to be. I like to think of it as heaving-to, but with a paddle instead of a sail to match the drift with thrust.

You're on that canoe thing, right? You're probably just gonna blow around a lot. I blow around a lot on the Malibu, and I would imagine the canoe is much worse. Probably just something you're going to have to deal with.

Sooner or later they will end...at least that's what we all keep on telling ourselves...

June and July will be great! I promise!
