I’d buy it in a heartbeat but I’m not going to be able to drive to WI until late summer.

That’s what I am looking for but unfortunately I am in SE Michigan. I am flying to Tallahassee tomorrow but I don’t think I could check it. Thanks.

I am going to sell my Esquif Echo (2025) and I would like to replace it with a “Bob Special”-inspired canoe from Nova Craft or a comparable-quality maker. Ideally <45 lbs. not interested in >50 lbs. Thanks, JDG

If I’m going to pay premium for a sub 50 lb, it better be under 50, not over.

Depth is 12.5”?The specs on their website say depth is 14.5”.

I would jump on a P15 “lite” but right now there isn’t one. The Huron 15 is available in lite.

Regardless of what a company produces and sells, if the quality of they don't get the small stuff right I wonder about the quality of their goods. How well made are Esquif canoes? How do they compare to those of MR back in their prime and those made by today by companies like Nova Craft and...

Why can’t Esquif get things right on their website? Last year they switched the weights if the Echo and the Adirondack.

The depth of my Camper has never been an issue; it's 13," and the H15 is 14.5. (and 10 lbs lighter.) Maybe I need to revisit the H15.

I already have a Camper. Does most things ok, but nothing great. The flat bottom is a negative on streams and rivers that twist and turn, while dodging sweepers, low branches, and rocks. The Huron 15 does check a lot of the boxes, especially relating to weight and price, but I think I want the...

Sounds like we are in the same "proverbial" boat, and yes, there aren't many 15-16' prospector-type canoes on the market. A really nice "Bob" popped up on the FM marketplace at a very fair price - it was gone in minutes.

The AuSable River system and Manistee River system in northern MI. No rapids, parts are twisty and navigating around sweepers and low hanging branches. Spring 400-450 qfs summer/fall 200 qfs. One of the biggest changes is being able to navigate through pinch points between down trees rocks and...

350-500, max. 75% of the time it will be a solo, well under 300. If I were going to spend the $$ on a Northstsr it would probably be a B15.

I have always thought that Canyons were specialized, primarily for white water.

Yeah. That’s the problem. The MR has a grey interior which I believe means is fiberglass and that means ~ 65 lbs.

I’ve been looking for an all around tandem that will paddle well as a solo, primarily on smaller rivers, that fits in between my Esquif Echo and my 17’ MR Duck Hunter. And because I’ll be using it mostly as a solo, weight is key. I’d prefer a weight around 50-55, tops but it’s going to be tough...

Nice. Too bad it’s too far away.

An Explorer was my initial thought. (And I may have an opportunity to purchase one in Eggplant, which will be hard to say no to.) I would consider a Malecite/Independence if I could find one within a reasonable driving distance from SE MI. Watching a movie on YouTube about a guy paddling a Nova...

A few weeks ago, I picked up a DH in Ohio. Ohio requires registration and, therefore, stickers posted on the hull. I need to remove the registration stickers, which I will do with a heat gun, but I am not sure how best to get rid os any residual adhesive. My go-to on other surfaces has always...
