So many times on prune you'll hear a good question with good answers and then never hear a follow-up, so I thought I'd remedy it with this post....
Thanks for all the advice guys! Just got back from a two week trip to Canada, where I did the float rating, eventually choosing
Air-Hart in Kelowna. Had an awesome time and can't recommend these guys enough for anyone who hasn't yet chosen their summer vacation or stumbles across this post in a search.
Took 6hrs to get the rating in the beautiful lake-spotted Okanagan valley, then Air-Hart are one of the few operators I found that allows solo rental, so this is a beach Mrs V spotted from the air where we decided to picnic. Anyone who's interested in doing the same, feel free to PM me about Air-Hart or getting the Canadian rating onto a JAR license.
