I simply love mine 8) Living in one of the world's top play boating area (Ottawa - Gatineau ) It's truly a fantastic boat. But for river running... :roll: It's got one speed, slow. If you accelerate real hard you'll get in 1st gear and as soon as you stop paddling it will immediately come to a stop....

I've often taken smaller boats on ww trips(for the obvious reasons) using my Esquif Canyon to carry the gear and the small boat of choice.

Rescue
I'm surprised no one came up with this obvious one. To rescue someone, in and out of boat in a sec. Throwing a throw bag. Power and leverage from the boat.

Re: Big waves and paddling in Canada
I will spend september in Canada, actually it's a road trip, but it will lead to Nova Scotia where the skookumchuck wave has it's home. Probably I won't be skilled enough for this one until then, but getting some information will never be for the worse anyway. Anyone knows this it? I've heard it's ...
