1.5mm Hyperflex 50/50 Poly Fleece & Neoprene Long Sleeve Top Review

1.5mm Hyperflex 50/50 Poly Fleece & Neoprene Long Sleeve TopKept me warm and comfortable 75 feet down in Cozumel, but the arm stitching really suffers when it's wet and you remove it.You will hear stitches popping.If you're careful with it, the hyperflex is a good product, but if you're rough with your gear then you may want to wait until it's 100% dry before removing it... or else go check out another product.

Product Description:
Poly Fleece separates are the latest technological advance in wetsuits. Polyolefin is a fleece lined material that wicks away moisture while insulating your body. Since it is extremely lightweight and does not add bulk, items can be worn under wetsuits for the ultimate insulating layer! The 50/50 shirt is a shop favorite, combining the warmth of Poly with the thickness and core warmth of 1.5mm neoprene on the chest and back. 1yr warranty.

Minn Kota Riptide SP Bow-Mount Trolling Motor with CoPilot and Autopilot (55-lb Thrust, 48" Shaft) Review

Minn Kota Riptide SP Bow-Mount Trolling Motor with CoPilot and AutopilotGood trolling motor, lots of power, handles my 16' fiberglass center console well. I highly recommend getting the Autopilot feature...it was worth the extra $200. It's nice being able to point the motor in one direction and having it go there w/o constant adjustments. Turning around is easy too, just turn the motor 180 degrees and it will bring the stern around by itself; all you have to do is fish!

MotorGuide trolling motors, Thruster Edition (hand/transom, 30 lb thrust) Review

MotorGuide trolling motors,  Thruster EditionPurchased this as a xmas gift for my nephew's john boat.
it works great for him to get around and fish. It was
priced reasonable and we were pleased with purchase.
To our amazement my nephew asked if he could put in on
our paddle boat to see if it would work. It mounted just
fine in the back seat on one side and put the battery on
the other side. Now when he gets tired he doesn't even have
to paddle if he goes to far! He even carries a rod and tackle
just in case.

Kelty Yellowstone 4 Footprint Review

Kelty Yellowstone 4 FootprintI received the footprint today and was disappointed in the material which is the same as the tent.It does have multiple ways to tie down the footprint, but for the price, it does not deliver the value.I found other footprints made of heavier material at 20% of the cost.The light weight might be an advantage for backpackers.Also there are no instructions as to how the mulitple tie-downs could be used with the tent.The one other advantage is that it fits the footprint of the tent unlike other generic footprints. If I had the oportunity for a do-over, I would not make this purchase.

About Paha Que
Paha Que Wilderness Inc. is a young and innovative company that makes high-quality family camping tents. Campers love them, but when they first see the name in print, they pause and wonder just how to pronounce it and try to understand its meaning. You won't find it in any dictionary and there have been debates amongst linguists about its derivation. According to the legend behind the term, Paha Que is the Southwest Indian version of "Aloha." Paha Que takes it to mean "happy trails." It can mean hello, good-bye, how are you, have a good day, and more. Perhaps a variation on the Spanish phrase Que Pasa? The people at Paha Que learned it from a local rancher friend whose grandpa learned it from local Indians. It boils down to the fact that the name is surely different, and appropriately so because these tents are very different from ordinary tents.

Kelty Palisade 4-Person Tent Review

Kelty Palisade 4-Person TentThe Kelty Palasaide was the second tent that I received from Kelty.I had purchased the Kelty Villa 4 this year (2010) and when I set it up I came to find out that is was defective.I called the warranty department at Kelty and they were really great.They had me setup the Villa Tent one additional time and then had me send a photo of the 3 inched of space under the floor.Being that the Villa 4 tent was from 2007 and discontinued they offered the Palisade as replacement.I was sold on the vestibule just from the website.

We are planning a trip next week to Sedona and as a test run we set the tent up in our living room.The main part of the tent went up supper easy - the circular pole was an interesting puzzle to figure out and using my 6 year old daughter as a brace we managed to get the tent up. I can honestly say that I could set up the entire tent by myself.As for the circular pole for the roof, I think a tree, car or anything stationary will work just fine if you are setting it up by yourself.

There are a few issues that I have with the tent....

1. Staking the Tent is a Must - The tent definitely needs to be staked to the ground.We go beach camping Palisade offers great ventilation in 80 degree Arizona evenings - finding a way to stake it in the sand will challenging.

2. Lack of Privacy.The Palisade is basically a bug shield without the rain fly.If you like a little privacy in a big campground you will need to attach the fly.Then you give up the awesome open roof and the star gazing that goes along with it.If you tend to do back country camping then the openness will not matter to much.

3. Pets Can Potentially Damage the Tent - We have a puppy we will be taking on our next camping trip and she already has come into the tent and made herself at home. The thing that concerns me is that if she wants out she can tend to scratch at the door.If she does with this tent the mesh will not last.

The Really positive things about the tent....

1. A BIG stuff sack - When we opened the box we found ample room in the duffle bag to account for non-professional packing.

2. A Star Gazing Roof to die for - My daughter and I laid down in the tent and looked up at the ceiling in our living room and the first thing she said was wow we can sure see a lot of shooting stars in this tent!!!!

3. Super Easy to Setup and Take Down - I could do it myself!

4. Large with Vertical Walls - We like to sleep with big comfy cots and both fit in just nicely.If you wanted a third cot it could get a little tight.Four cots would definably not fit.

5. Vestibule and Rainfly is really cool! - Makes an extra room for you!(For it to work it needs to be staked to the ground!)

6. Great Customer Service - Kelty provides awesome customer support directly out of their Colorado office...

We will report back once we have a chance to test it in the field.

Kelty Gunnison 4.1 Tent (Spring 2010) Review

Kelty Gunnison 4.1 TentThis is a great 3 season tent with 2 large vestibles and plenty of ventilation. It is of course over rated for capacity as all tents are but it will comfortably house my wife, my dog and me with some gear. Easy to set up, re-pack and very durable so far, just remember to always use a tent footprint. You can buy better tents but for the money this one ranks high in value.
