The Minnesota Canoe Association may be able to help you connect. mncanoe.org there are members everywhere I think with a preponderance in the twin cities. I do know there are some canoe racers in Duluth, but do not remember their names. hope this helps. If you come down to Minneapolis there are...

This might already been listed above, but i saw an article on this. https://dillenschneiderdesigns.com/

Thanks, I just had surgery, so can i connect with you in a few weeks. Not able to function right now. Do you have any pictures and a price? Also why selling?

Not for me. i'm limited to one solo and one tandem. one in, one out

Sorry to hear that. Always next year. Stuff happens to me as i age and i just have to force myself to slow down and roll with it.

JCH_Ski, Are you still planning to do the Ausable 120 challenge? How has your training gone over the spring? I am toying with the idea of considering it next year, but am concerned about the amount of time in the seat. Good luck

one of my concerns is not being able to paddle an example before buying one. I think I will have to try to get out to one of the big races (Ausable or Clinton) or something like that to paddle different boats. I did also see that GRB Newman has a race canoe called the Concept which looks really...

If you're looking for a fast race boat, GRB also makes the concept.

bonpawtuck, thanks. I had not seen that one. I wonder if it is really old, as that price seems too good to be true. I'll try contacting the seller as well. regards zehyani

congrats on the new canoe. Paddle lots. Use a gps to trace speed and efficiency. Connect with some racers. They will help you. enjoy

Anyone selling a Savage River Blackwater or GRBNewman classic xl? Looking for a used one.

There is plenty of time to find the right canoe. in the meantime, you have a solo to practice in. I suspect joining or connecting with the Michigan Canoe Racing association will get you lots of resources, both in terms of boats and training. I have paddled a DY special once. It was a really...

http://miracing.com/mcra/ Michigan canoe racing page. There must be other canoe clubs around as well. I am sure there are lots of people who can help, paddle with and train. BTW, I bought my advantage from someone who advertised it on BWCA.com. Good luck.

i have an advantage and think it would be a great canoe for a fast stock race or a fast tripping canoe. I misspoke. It's a Sawyer DY special, not DS special. I have not seen a light one, but it is a fast and to me stable canoe.

does it have to be a stock boat, or do you want a racing solo? There is a website called Rivermiles where this sort of stuff is discussed. I would suggest looking at. 1. Savage River Blackwater. probably too expensive 2. Wenonah Advantage. 3. Sawyer DS or Shockwave. 4, GRB newman classic. Or...
