First rain storm in the boat

Well rain fly not as water tight as I had hoped.  The storm just came up on me, no real warning.  Nothing was put away, I barely got to shore.  Everything would of been semi dry if it wasn't for the barges; I dislike them.  Got everything up and secure and a barge flies by and water pours over the side of the canoe.  There is about thirty gallons of water in the boat right now!  I am just sitting above it looking at it in contempt.  Thank god for the pontoons, keeping me stable and afloat.  I had often said before I left for the trip that I wish they were smaller.  I take it all back they are perfect. Thank you Randy Grape.
