    Towed an empy sailing canoe with the club rescue boat once. Certainly wasn’t easy!

    we tried empty and it wanted to turn broad side on and then roll

    with the weight in it then the canoe tracked pretty well…. so weight is the answer

    I am really enjoying the estuary – hoping to launch the trailer sailer this week. They have allocated me a mooring – number 150

    Using a bridle makes canoe towing easier.

    LOL! That is certainly easier than paddling I suppose but a bit of a cop out :-)
