It's too late now but I'm selling my Whitesell Descender w/pump I took down the Grand
2 years ago. It worked great, no swims but several portages lower. I only did the top half
and I believe the rounded chine is the way to go. Denver would have been out of your way
also.

Sounds like you had some ...

located in Denver, always stored inside, pump under seat with waterproof battery and switch box (all remove-
able) ran Grand Canyon 2 years ago with no swims but several portages, includes solar charger, homemade
thigh retainer saddle (1" wider), narrowed OAW by 2" to 31", well used of course but ...

Whitesell Descender 13' w/ pump under center of Mohawk saddle
big water boat but also tracks well on flat- ran Grand Canyon last
year with no swims but several portages among 2 paddlers.
well used as you can imagine but functional- bags slow leak
A lot of work went into pump (removeable) with ...

Whitesell Descender 13' big water boat, 1200gph pump centered under Mohawk saddle,
60" float bags, waterproof battery & switch box, well used but still functional. Just ran
Grand Canyon with no swims but several portages. Narrowed 2" to 31" oaw $650

I don't think they have that Pirana anymore. We were outfitted by Moenkopi and they say
someone wrecked it. So I bought a well used Descender and put a 1200gph bilge pump and
Mohawk saddle and it worked fine. No swims but several portages. I put it together just for
the GC, which we just finished ...

If it were cheaper I would get it to replace my Whirlwind, my #1 boat. It would be a
luxury to replace my usable but beat to hades boat at this stage. If I were just 20 years
younger...

If you still have the Whitesell Decender I'm interested. I realize some time has passed
since your post.

sorry didn't see page 2

The Whirlwind has been my main boat for over 20 years. I just keep patching it up. It is great for the bigger water here out west. Very dry, kinda slow due to full front(hence dry) I have the light layup so is close to Z weight. Seems the Z would be nicer for creeking back east though. The W ref to ...

I might be interested but problem of how to get to CO. I wouldn't need saddle or pumps, have Mohawk saddle.

It tracks great and handles big water due to the round chine. Waves
just roll under it. To get it to turn I believe it is meant to be put on
its side and that is the rocker. It is very wide at the center other-
wise..
