We did 2 very hard hours in the canoe. Small craft warnings were out. It was 3 foot chop and made paddling very difficult. Winds were around 20 to 25 mph. Quartering into the wind makes for a very difficult workout. choppy water is much more difficult to paddle in than is glassy water.

Overall, it was a fantastic workout. I think that the fact that we have to paddle hard or we just wont get home adds an awful lot to the fun. You have no choice but to push.
