It's pretty lively on the side to side wiggle, but I deliberately tried capsizing it in the shallows and did the 2 finger dip test

Great canoe, good paddling performance, not as fishing-stable as some I've been in but the manoeuvrability, speed and handling out of the water is very nice trade off

whats the length and weight of the boat? I have a 16 footer and absolutely love going out with it.
Madsen Maskingevær !!o9Rj2xAYif5
>>2167799 3.80.m
23.kg Lightest and shortest canoe I've ever use, guess that's why it feels more like a kayak when solo paddling
Has a nice natural cruising speed if you don't want to power stroke and change hands, glides very well on a stroke
But it is by far the speediest canoe I've ever been in if you really lay it in. Which is very nice

>>2167810 for non fags its a 12'6" and 50lbs
seriously what is it made of concrete. I have a 17 footer that come in at 40 lbs with a 600lb weight capacity. if you are going to buy a plastic piece of shit get a fucking kayak
Madsen Maskingevær !!o9Rj2xAYif5
>>2167813 I'm not sure about the conversion to Liberian numbers, are you talking lifting capacity or the weight of the canoe?

You’ll soon learn lots of little tricks to make life easy. If you see others out don’t be afraid to ask. I’ve been doing it for years, some professionally. The other day I learned how to tie a self locking tensioning knot for the roof rack, fucking game changer! Well not quite, but it’s pretty cool.

>>2168336 I cannot find a single decent canoe paddle stocked in any generic outdoors store now. It's entirely Stand-up Paddleboard and Kayak paddles. The only canoe paddle I was able to find was a $15 plastic piece of shit from Wal Mart.

decided to try a kneeling stance in my dinghy today and hot damn is it ever better than sitting with your legs forward. i folded the seat down, skooted up towards the bow and stuffed all my gear in the back 2/3rs of the boat and was motoring in high gear all the way down the river
Madsen Maskingevær !!o9Rj2xAYif5
>>2177076 Yea it's way way better imo too, the seat hight in my canoes is absolutely perfect for me where I can splay my knees full but keep all the weight on the seat
One thing I am running into though is pain in my big toes because they end up being pressed, might just need to loosen the ol' joints with more trips!
Got absolutely demolished by rain but it was fun, also nice trying them out In more complex weather

>>2177088 >pain in my big toes because they end up being pressed, i havent quite worked out the best position for my feet either, need to trim my toenails too a bit or go to yoga class lol. paddling in the rain is hella fun, im looking forward for the impending fall rains

very very cool to see the swallows come out in huge numbers and fly SUPER low just minutes before the rain hit

>>2176962 Yeah that's the plan, but the issue there of course is that you either pay through the nose:
