    Where were you going on that 2SK?
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    The longest one I have been through was more than 12 kilometres in Italy. Of course that was in a car not on a raft. I haven't been rafting in more than twenty years and have certainly never been through a tunnel on one.

    Why not whack an oar frame on that raft, I used to run one down the lower Mohaka on Goat expeditions.

    Bony shoaly rapids between Oamaru and McVicas Bridge, and hang on for your life below the Te Hoe confluence. I used to run a oar frame below the main highway and get out at the Te Hoe junction. Used to guide the Upper and the lower Mohaka in the mid eighties. Lower Motu would of been a better bet for your hunting I would of thought. Wind can be an issue when it's blowing back up the river.

    Ha ha to true Rushy. I was that tall handsome guide that all the woman used to fall for, yeah right, only in my dreams. River Runners, Wet and Wild, Rafting Unlimited and The Rafting Company are all guys I did work for.
