Is the boat a Mohawk and if so how long?

Thank you

reminds me of bubble gum blue. I like it!

i really appreciate all of the posts. thank you all for shedding light on the zephyr and its twin-tex material. I do not doubt that it is a good boat.

I think though that because this is a beginner boat that I need to look elsewhere due to the material. Maybe a second boat.

I'm really looking at this boat for a female friend that is 5'2'' 100lbs. The fact that this is her first ww boat makes me think it wouldn't really be a good idea. The weight was something she really liked but the price and the material are really big negatives. She might just have to have a heavier ...

so now that we have learned the history on the zephyr and why only one company in north America makes a c boat of twin-tex, what about twin-tex made that happen. Does the material fall short of what canoes need? does it just not make the cut?

I've read topics that include information on this boat(zephyr) but none that elaborated enough on the material of and how to repair it.

How strong is Twin-tex compared to whatever you know in comparison? Anything to shed some light on the material is good stuff. I just don't want to buy a boat ...

Off topic I know and maybe none of my business but why can Louie not respond on this forum?

really just want to know how not to be kicked from this forum if that is what happened. This site is how i learn the ways of the enlightened people.

BTW i'm not a convert.

Probe 12 100% of time, only because that is the only boat I have. I am regretting it now because I was steered away from the vipers because of the hard chines which I think I could have handled/grown accustomed to even though it is my first ww canoe.

I like being pushed to the next level but i ...

thank you everyone who has posted about my question. now to go and put the help to test on a river instead just a pond.

thanks again

I have a pair of mohawk made air bags, which im not too happy with; or mohawk the company.but......

so how do you properly install a pair of air bags? Should they be flat or round and come above the gunwales? How can i make them keep water from going under them?

thank you for all the help that ...

so you glue the foam all the way up the walls of the hull to the gunwales creating a taller wall for the water to be scooped with?

my air bags are definantly not that long but there is room for bigger airbags. if i were to install bigger airbags wouldn't that just push all the water towards me ...

Just starting into whitewater canoeing and figured i should learn to role first. I can roll my mohawk probe 12 up but there is a pretty good amount of water in my boat when i do.

Is the probe 12 just designed this way?

more likely answer
Is there something wrong with my technique?

Realize my ...
