Sorry. I can’t part with my 2006 Magic. Mike |

I have a Magic Solo canoe and I am looking at this CCS Quad Pocket Pack and 30 Liter Harmony Blue Barrel. It looks like it may be a very tight fit especially with those pockets when placed toward the bow just ahead of front thwart. The Quad Pocket Pack is 14 inches in diameter and the pockets are 3 1/2 inches wide (pockets are offset on the sides of the pack … so full diameter would not be 21 inches). I have talked with Dan Cooke and will do a bit of measuring. I would like to lay the CCS Quad Pocket Pack down flat in the bow. May have to go with the regular CCS 30 Liter barrel harness without the pockets. CCS Quad Pocket Pack for 30 Liter Harmony Blue Barrel |

Yes there is certainly room behind my seat for the 30 Liter Barrrel Pack possibly even a 60 Liter. But I like to put my large CCS Pioneer or Guide Pack bank there ... as they ate too large to lay flat up front in the bow area . |

On my September Quetico Trip one of the guys in our solo group had a 60 Liter Barrel in the front of his Wenonah Prism ( which is quite a bit wider in the bow than my Magic). Another had a 7 gal bucket with a gamma lid in his pack. They both brought a thin lightweight board and put it on the top of their barrel and bucket and used it as a table. They stored their food and stoves and fuel in their bucket and barrel . I liked their setup. |
