That's an interesting link cheesy. We bought an inflatable canoe last year and have just returned from Hill of Oaks caravan site where we were able to launch the canoe direct onto Windermere. It's a great site for canoeing as it seems to be quieter down that end of the lake.

Seems access to water is severley limited in this country though.

Glad you found the link good, we use that site a lot nearly as much as this one (lol) with us both loving camping and canoeing they go well together.
They are a helpful bunch and you can ask them anything just like on here.
We normally post out trip bloggs just done one for Ironbridge
Access is a pain in England, no problem in scotland though

Sorry to hijack thread, what inflatable canoes do you have, we have looked at the sevylor ones in the past as they seem good quality,

OH wants a rigid one, I want an inflatable as she drives an MPV and its a bugger getting stuff on and off the roof. (Especially as she is only 4'10 and it'll be me hanging off the side of the things trying to get it on.) !!

We've not been able to decide yet

I have the Colorado and have found it really stable, especialy on the sea and on Windermere a couple of weeks ago when it was really blustery. You don't get the feeling it will tip over and I suspect with two big inflatable bags down either side it won't either. The big advantage is being able to put it all in the boot rather than on the roof, then being able to store it at home in a cupboard etc.
