I have the exact same boat and wanted to thank you for giving me the confidence to install my float bags..anyhow in case you didn't notice (forgive my lack of proper canoe terms) the black "decking" at each end of the boat has two screws that go through the wooden support..those screw ends are kind of sharp and could puncture a float bag.. I just screwed acorn nuts on the exposed end and problem solved.

Hey Jason, I was just watching Tosh’s latest video and I noticed the frying pan you were using. It intrigued me because I’m a gearaholic. I watched closely to see what you were using and then I rewatched this video for any more details. The best I can figure is that it’s a 12(?) inch T-fal that you removed/modified the handle on? If you’re so inclined, would you give me specifics on the pan and details of the handle modifications you did to it please? Thanks. I really enjoy your videos 👍🏻
