What Are Jargon ?? :) Thanks Paul. I ordered Nick's book about a week ago and should get it soon, and I've got a Barnes & Noble about a mile or two from here so I may just go and look up the others. Of all the monthly's out there, would Woodenboat magazine be the best or is there some other that covers primarily canoes and kayaks? I don't like getting loaded down with magazines as I seldom ever get to read them and the barber doesn't have room for any more freebies. Thanks again,
