Fish Seeker,

No problem. As a serious (t.i.c.) student of water, I discovered that water in large rivers has the same specific gravity as water in small rivers, so my 7' raft (smaller than your 'toon) floats just as high on the South Fork Snake at 20,000 cfs, Snake, Skagit, and Cowlitz as it does on smaller rivers and creeks. Actually the smallest streams are the most difficult to float, it turns out.

If you can ride a bicycle on a country road with a few cars around, you can most likely float your 'toon down the Cowlitz with a few jet boats driving around. It's true that they aren't looking for you specifically, but most drivers, out of concern for their own boats, try to avoid hitting any obstacles, like logs, gravel bars, and other boats. Knowing that, you need only drive defensively, just like on the road.

Good luck!

Sincerely,

Salmo g.
