THe escapde is a great boat for all the stuff you discribe. Lightus couples daytrips flatwater. Occasionaly en weekender or further if you pack light aka walking camp people. I did paddle it a numbr of times i think it is one of the better wenonnah models that does deliver what it advertized...

Epifanes double coat is my plan for my carbon wildfire. That 8s what is local.here and recommneded by epifanes. Now where 8s te time to do it and temp not going crazy

Greenval barracuda.. Not sure how well it behaves with 340 lbs. I Did paddle that one and it is yummie with my 80 ish kilo's I would start with that and maybe scale that. Or look very carrenfully at a blackwater or a swift cruiser. Or put a sail on your kite. ;)

@Tryin' not sure if there are dealers near you but this one works fine: https://www.eckla.de/en/produkt/eckla-followers-of-bicycle-trailers/ Not for tandem. but soloslike a blakcwater or encoutne or.. works well.

hope that other day is soon .. thanks again for anothe great write up.

sounds like a lovely trip. Good the work paid of. The yellow bags look good in there. Hope it is the first of many. The osprtey / kite is no speed demon. They shine when things get rough or twisty

Have A great time with your wife. Hope togetehr you can have many trips. Looking forward to some pics.

I Will make some better pics next time What is on the photo. A wildfire. Some northern irish bags. A solway dory leeboard with mount A hobie kayak sail of about 2 square meter with 2 piece mast that is part of the set. A northstar seat A 30 l barrel that is also a footrest. 2 sidebags.

Slowly getting there. First sailing is done.a few smaller itirations are still in my head.

AS a freestyle coahc, the solo us variant. There are not many boats that work well for the 2 disciplines. THe starfire with a tall persaon 185 cm plus is more or less the only i can think of. For petit ( sub 160cm) the echo and some others are nice for canadian ok for freestyle. Enjoy the...

Hi lp, To me canadian style is big boat pasdlesld solo kneeled in the middle lenght wise. Kneeled in the chines gunnel close t9 the water narrow blade. Boat wise. big is good. Bigger is better. So while the twister and echo are great boats. Not f9r this All other 3 you mentioned are fine...
