New Swift Cirrus 14.6

[adkjoe]

Last Friday I took delivery of a 2026 Swift Cirrus 14.6 in carbon fusion with the crimson tint, matching float tanks, carbon foot bar and basalt innegra interior. The boat weighs in at 27.2#'s. Now I just need winter to die

When I test paddled this boat back in June both kneeling and sitting I found it very stable yet responsive. To me this boat feels like a mix of the Wildfire and Phoenix with just a bit more hull speed. My intention for this boat is my so called "Everyday boat" that is why I wanted it in the sub 30# range. My life has changed a bit and I'm more likely to day paddle right now than do tripping. Below are the specs from the Swift site:

• Length: 14'6"
• Gunwale Width: 27"
• Maximum Width: 30"
• Waterline Width: 26.5"
• Centre Depth: 12.5"
• Bow Height: 18.5"
• Stern Height: 16.5"
• Bow Rocker: 2.5"
• Stern Rocker: 2"

Come to here. You can float and do day trips or longer for weeks on end.

She's a beauty. I'm a little envious. Let us know how she goes.

Looks like winter is still being stubborn up there, good luck. Certainly a beautiful canoe, and sounds like it will be an enjoyable paddle.
