The New Swift/DY Redesign of the Dragonfly

[Steve in Idaho]

I'm pretty sure that the only large production volume canoes that are regularly sold without any gel coat are Northstars and the epoxy Swifts...

Also Clipper.

Wenonah skincoat? I have no clue if that is gelcoat or.....

Wenonah has been featuring skin coat resin finishes for decades. From what I see at Wenonah's web site, the only build option that uses gel coat is the Flex-Core layup.

I didn't realize that - but for some reason I have never paid as much attention to Wenonah as I have some of the other brands - so my bias has suppressed my knowledge it would seem!

Wenonah is often forgotten, I think mainly because they're known for sleek, fast canoes, not the turny boats often discussed here. But they do offer some nice all-around models.
