Hi all. There is only one problem with the dates, if you push it back to the week starting the 19th. The March break week here in Ontario starts the week of the 12th, that means you'd more than likly have fewer paddler coming down from this side of the border. I know this could be a factor for a lot...

As far as the hatches go, we've done three boats with them already,they work great!! The difference with our hatches is they screw in, where as Craigs have a hinge & latch., but either works perfect and they're the same size.

Louie what kind of accommodations & food are around the area for us sissy Canucks, any B&B, hotels or motels, that sort of thing ? Or are we tenting it somewhere? We're in tents most of the summer so I try to avoid tenting it in the offseason, unless I`m winter camping. That said, thats what separat...

I maybe interest it depends on the dates, our March break would be best for us, ( thats the week of the 12th ) How long would this go on for ? If we did come there would be four of us, all in solo boats, our girls in their Splash boats. :wink: The problem that I have... it's still ski season up here...

Its a interesting design, but I don't think its going to be Esquifs number one selling boat. This boat is not for everyone, matter of fact I think you'll only see a select few paddling an owning it. Simply put you don`t turn this boat with your paddle, you turn it with its edges. Where as most of th...
