Welcome to the forum. Judging by your pics you'll fit right in. Also check out "Song Of The Paddle" Canoeing forum http://www.songofthepaddle.co.uk/forum/ It's aimed at the Canadian canoe but there is loads of info on where to go etc.
Welcome mate, nice intro.
Mind if I ask, what panset is it you are using here...
I've never seen a pot grabber like that before.

They are pots from an old catering bain-marie combined with a couple of industrial baking pans. I knocked the handle together using my works TIG.
My set is made up of two bain marie pots, a frying pan, handle & four small steel pans which double as bowls. All the parts fit inside the largest pot....a wee bit bulky for light camping but ideal on the sea trips or by the car - where weight is not such an issue or 'for the hungrier camper' or 'the one pot wonder' when feeding a few folks.
As I said, like to try & make a lot of my own gear where possible.....saves me a few quid & you just can't beat using home made gear when it works well.

Great intro. Welcome. Watch out for Miyagi... he's a weird one
JonathonD's right, watch out for that Miyagi - absolute oddball.
Great pictures there Davy.
I never knew a canoe could carry that much kit.
Looking at those pics, you're obviously one of those couch potato types.
All the best,
Liam
