That's "64", as in "years old", but I refuse to trade my beloved Saab for a damned Buick! I had a roofrack on my first Saab, a '71 99E, and frequently found it very useful.
I should have bought an Old Town canoe when I was in the Army in New Hampshire back in the late 60's, but I couldn't afford the $300 price on a soldier's pay. The Old Towns at Sportsman's Warehouse are now in the $3000 to $4500 range. I'm going to check into the Saab roofrack and keep my eyes open for a good used, light weight canoe.
Ah, the Penobscot...river that is, not the canoe model. I used to fish the west branch of the Penobscot in Maine when I was in the Army. The land-locked Atlantic salmon fishing was great. They would take dry flies and jump about eight times before you could net them.
Thanks again for your suggestions, Eric, and remember to keep your powder, martinis, and flies dry.
