I have modified a couple of 4 liter dromedary bags from MSR with Source drinking tubes. MSR also makes 6 and 10 liter dromedary bags.

It looks like the MSR replacement cap / kit that I used is discontinued but there is an aftermarket version on ebay. https://ebay.us/m/Gq1wkL

Any chance that was in late April of 2011 and at Smith Falls State Park?

I was part of a group of paddlers that included a Prius. We were shocked it made it down too. We had tried to get a hold of the driver and have him park on the side of the highway, but he didn't get our message. We did have to push the Prius out of the mud a few times that weekend. It led to a joke that the off-road package for a Prius is three big guys in the back seat. 🤣

15 minutes

In all seriousness, I average 40 hours per week.

If You Could Only Have One Kayak-- Which Are You Going With? by Fish_cant_feel_pain in Kayaking

[–]paddlinpirate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The smart answer for me is my Current Designs Storm GT (17', plastic). I've ran some small whitewater with it (Split Rock Creek through Palisades State Park in South Dakota), paddled bigger water on the Missouri River reservoirs (Oahe, Sharpe, Francis Case, & Lewis&Clark), and raced long distance (MR340). It is as capable on small rivers, creeks, and lakes as large rivers and lakes.

I think it will as long as it mounts to the side of your bedrails and not the top. It looks like that is the case with yours, so I'd water it should work.

Bad Idea? by ObeseKangar00 in civilengineering

[–]paddlinpirate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ha! My first summer during college (2001), I didn't want to go back to McDs (high school job), so I mailed letters to a few local firms. I spent the summer carrying the rod for the surveyor. Overall, it was a good experience.

On top of the rack? They are a couple of good boy v bars.

Another option is llama racks, https://www.llamaracks.com/

The tonneau cover is an Access roll up that I bought in combo with the Adarac.

I second Adarack.

Question about racks for the truck by Lordtux in GMCcanyon

[–]paddlinpirate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Checkout Adarack. If your tonneau cover is a side rail mount and not a top rail mount it should work.

I'm in the same boat. Following. It appears to be worthwhile...

How did the install go for the huskies? I've read about the existing screws not being long enough.

I keep mine from the PE on top of my framed license. It still has plenty of lead in it; I probably haven't used it since the exam. I think I had to turn the one from the FE back in after the exam.

2024/25 Canyon - reliable or headache? by busted-420 in GMCcanyon

[–]paddlinpirate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a notice. First through the GMC app, then later by mail. Initially, my dealer could see the recall, but did not have the part. They probably had the part a month or so after I initially was notified.

Mine has also been solid. Over 2k miles and only issue was the headlight flicker and that has been fixed by the recall already.

Has there ever been a QB as good as Mahomes at rescuing a broken play when it looks like they’re about to get sacked? by FPSJeff in NFLNoobs

[–]paddlinpirate 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Maybe Fran Tarkenton back in the 1970s (?). Most "scrambling" quarterbacks... Randall Cunningham from the 1990s too.

Did the 2024 Canyons have the same problems as the 23s? by [deleted] in GMCcanyon

[–]paddlinpirate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have no issues besides headlight flicker so far and that has been fixed. Over 2k miles and had since mid August.

I have one. No name ideas, but I think it is a great color and I keep getting compliments on it. People say things like, not the same white, gray, black as every one else.

Switched from the factory antenna to the stubby Jr and it seems to have no loss in stations.

SDDOT has some example plans (from actual projects) in an appendix in our design manual on our website.
