Whoops...Sorry everyone as I thought I was in the "Photo of The Day" section. Will try to figure out how to move this or delete and re-post.

If a butterfly flaps its wings on the other side of the globe... Will your Kevlar Ultralight leave port and float across the flippin lake???

My son contemplating his fate on his first canoe camping trip. In all honesty I was half convinced we were going to be airlifted out as we witnessed a number of float planes and choppers overhead. What started as a small bit of smoke upon entering Russell lake quickly swelled into more than what...

Well, it is done enough for now. Planned to take it outside for some glamor shots but this weekend has been absurdly hot and humid. Should not be in the 90's this time of the year in MN however it didn't help that I had my kiln running in the workshop yesterday which went past 2,000F. With that...

FINISHING: Looked high & low for exterior Watco in the area checking all the big-box stores, local hardware store, boat repair shop, & paint supply however no luck without special ordering a gallon or more. Did purchase a pint of Watco Danish Oil in Dark Walnut as in reading the MR 1994...

I'll look for into some of the most recent dimension questions later this week and get back to every one. Thanks.

Thanks Grumpus. Yes, definitely having fun with this current obsession. Your boat is stunning and you must be right about the ash as I paid attention to the weight of the yoke yesterday and too light to be oak. Thanks for the tips on the potential of adding weight. From what I have read about...

Thanks Mike In looking at the '94 brochure it does show various canoes with the drop-peg hangers in the accessories photos etc. Couldn't imagine a DIYer fitting the seats in as perfect as they are as each drop peg is drilled/fitted as such that not all holes are precisely on center. In other...

Glad I'm not the only one needing to dig into old documents to find answers. Admittedly the research is fun and probably speaks to the rarity of this canoe? The customer service guy is out for the next week so will need to wait a for some of the questions I had for him. Just trying to decipher...

Thanks again guys. Took some photos this AM but have yet to compare with the info shown in the '94 catalog provided to me by customer service. Someone here might know at a glance if this is glass as I too am suspecting. No doubt it is well made but being mid 40's forces me to consider weight...

Thanks again everyone for the information. As of yesterday I had convinced myself this was a kevlar boat judging by how the weight felt as I shouldered it a number of times and put it on the truck. Also not knowing exactly how the different fabrics looked. However in doing the best I could given...

Thanks so much gents for your input. I did get some info from tech support in the form of a '94 catalog. Will look it over tonight & possibly post more if anything is notable. Micah.

Hello fellow paddlers. My first post here and the main reason for joining. Recently picked this beauty up for a song and trying to find out more about it as I could locate only one post from the all-knowing google. Been trying to reach Mad River for at least a week with no luck. However waiting...
