Read the regs closer. If someone is paddling then that canoe is underway. All motion is to be stopped. A sailboat? the sails must be furled and forward motion must be stopped.

Check the regs, its only illegal if you have a motor and am underway... can you read canoe??

I had leases in Florida for about 30 years. About 6 years ago we gave up our last lease. We hunted mostly hogs and turkeys. We now lease in Alabama.
Being that far away killed the every weekend hunting camp lifestyle but the weather and excellent whitetail hunting in Alabama made up for it. I am older now and have more time and finances to spend a lot of time in AL. Additionally technology allows me to work while out of town so I can be gone and still keep things going as if I am in town. I miss the old Florida camp life but really enjoy my hunting season in Alabama. I live in Southwest Florida so development and population growth as pretty much made hunting here a no go. Our last lease was on a ranch south of Lake O. Great hog lease and about an Hour and a half drive from my house. 9 hr ride now to Alabama.
