Summer is coming, this means swimming inna-wood. Share river/lake/creek stories or experiences. Anything related to physically being in the water or interacting with lakes/rivers/streams/springs/swamps/etc.

Fishing stories / experiences belong in the Fishing & Tackle Thread.

I'm a pretty skilled swimmer so no stories to tell.

There was a river near me I used to swim in when I was 10 or 12, real choppy area, i remember jumping in and being carried down the river hitting every single rock on the way, it was fun, but nothing dangerous, I was a young child at the time and could handle it. Recently some swimmer died in that same area of the river, he was in his twenties.
Sometimes its hard to believe fairly harmless waters can be fatal, but it happens, a lot more than you think.

The ocean is still the best. I don't mind a nice river swim but nothing is like the raw power of the ocean. I used to live in Hawaii and while I was there I did two 2.4 mile swims, on on the North Shore and the other one across Waikiki. Also did several shorter ones.

The ocean is the best.

Buddy and I took a 16ft aluminium canoe from Kentucky all the way to the Gulf of Mexico. Was a really insane 3 months. Ohio river connects to Tennesee River, which connects to the Tombigee River which will spit yoy out into Mobile, Alabama. I swear we almost died of dehydration like 10 times. Also had to carry canoe for miles sometimes due to parts we could not navigate. We had mapped the entire route so we knew that these blockages and dams existed but man, that is really really hard.

Boat wright here..

getting a boat for free, is an amazing feeling. no motor, no problem. anything from 12-30 foot you can use any gasoline/diesel engine from car or truck, transmission or direct drive. turning a boat meant for outboard, to inboard, is basically fiberglass, plywood, resin, some screws, a few hinges, the motor, a way to connect the prop shaft the collar for the prop shaft [the thing that mounts to the boat, that takes the shaft from inside your boat to the outside?] and a prop. if you've got...

Looking to get my first kayak and I'm wondering what I should watch out for. Plan to use it for saltwater island camping this summer. Usually I putt around in a 14 foot motorboat, but downsizing seems ideal for some of the rockier islands around here.

Any general/saltwater kayaking advice?

Know what to do when your shit flips over, and waterproof everything super carefully.

Other than that, it's not too complicated.

Oh, and try not to get washed out to sea by any currents, that can happen if you're in a coastal area with no motor and the tides are strong.

Thanks anon. I know where most of the eddys/currents tend to form around here, so I should be ok.

Was my experience with the boy scouts unique? I just truly was disappointed with my troop.

When they came to our school they said we would learn to live in the woods and get to play with tanks. I immediately joined. When I got there, I found that I was the only child that was not obese or had a severe medical condition. 75% of these kids had inhalers. I knew right away I was surrounded by total fucking losers that had no business whatsoever in the woods. These kids were all genetically worthless and even at age 7 I knew that. I stayed for 8 years, so that I could go camping...

My troop actually did /out/ stuff and had good leadership, but it was still a bit of an autism-fest.

We had 4 guys in my troop who became scholarship college athletes though, but I think guys like that get into it at a young age in cub scouts, so if you don't have a strong local cub scout program your boy scout troop is gonna be fucked.

I had a hell of a time in the BSA because I grew up in rural Kentucky, and luckily we had a troop designated to the little community I grew up in. It actually used to be a pretty happening place with a post office, grocery store, and Masonic Lodge, and I that's why. Eventually the post office closed and we became a part of the nearest city. We used meet in the old Masonic lodge until they tore it down and our troop was disbanded.

Agreed anon. The ultra-lighters seem to be usually day hike fags from the cities who can barely manage to not collapse on any intense multi day trek by casting away literally every possible piece of gear they can slide by without. The reason the pounds takes it out of them is that they're not conditioned usually.

I can buy any thermos that does that for a lot cheaper and maybe has more features like cups and handles.

If I were you, I would save my cash for something more useful but if you really want it, get it. Just make sure you read plenty of reviews as with anything you are going to drop money on.
