YMMV, I'm an openboater. I sit in the middle.

For now...that is, if you can get your canoes to Hong Kong. Are you still
considering going over to the dark side and doing some kayak touring? As
much as I'm sure you'd hate to do it you may want to consider selling the
canoes and picking up a kayak in HK. Since someone else mentioned the
possibility of limited storage space, a folding kayak might be a good
option.

Hey John:
I heard from the school today that they have a fleet of ocean kayaks and I
have access. I think I'll get a folboat (canoe) for the interrum, and start
getting into seayaking. Sounds like a better way to get around in open water
than a canoe, if I can learn to get my lower back to bend enough!
