 That's awesome, Duncan. I've been a fan of CC & His LPA since junior high, but never saw them til 2000something at the Mt Baker Blues Festival in Deming. Not quite in their prime, but still fun. That's awesome, Duncan. I've been a fan of CC & His LPA since junior high, but never saw them til 2000something at the Mt Baker Blues Festival in Deming.

-When I bought my Good Boy racks the owner convinced me to get a wide v for the rear rack. It distributes the pressure on the boat more evenly and allows you to carry both skinny and fat boats. I went with the narrow on the front, but the owner said wide would be good there too. Side tip – I bought some glue-down felt from Amazon and put them on my pads. They'​ve held well and eliminated the fingernails on a chalkboard squeaking. I am very happy with my rack, particularly in big winds.+When I bought my Good Boy racks the owner convinced me to get a wide v for the rear rack.
