    I do some hunting out of a Canadian canoe and another boat as well. These cost as much and more than most of my other hunting gear. The Canadian cost me $2000 over ten years ago, being built in Canada from Kevlar and imported. My GWP dogs are a fair investment as well but the return in meat and poultry from them is pretty awesome, not to mention the sheer joy from them, whether we get game or not. Rough weather over clothing is expensive and I have had some supposedly "best " stuff that was not worth squat after a couple of years use. The best I have found is the heavy Stoney Creek outer wear. (bullet proof and everything else proof for over 5 years now.) GPS , compass, maps and plb now always carried along with 1st aid kit and survival blanket,, Mercator, wax matches, twine and inner tube pieces at all times. Never used to carry gps or plb in earlier times, as they did not exist, but with age comes increased risk, so I figure they are a good investment today.
