Hey Zak, my usual red onion pickling goes like this, steep in hot water for 20 minutes. Drain and cover with 1 to 2 cups of fresh squeezed lime juice…and some salt.

Has anyone fermented red onions?

Hey Dave, sweet get away. I take it your Granger is 8’6” 4 weight, 2 piece, yes? ( still learning)

I’ve had a Grizzly for years. I like it more than a pontoon I had. The only issue is how slow it rows, due to its large surface tension. But that helps it hold better in the wind. Otherwise I love it…
