Kayaking Search Engine

Advice
#1

There is tremendous value in the archives here at pnet, but I’ve found the search capability on this site to be a bit lacking. As a result, I created my own search engine to search these archives and the ones at West Coast Paddler and UK Sea Kayaking Guidebook. The index is updated every hour. There are currently over 50,000 forums topics indexed. Enjoy!
