Re: Stern "squirting" in a Cascade C1?

... for years, and he only "big" water I paddled in one was the lower Tuolumne and the warm up section of the NF Payette (Hounds tooth to below Otter Slide) so take this for what it's worth. I'm about 10 lbs lighter, and think that despite its weight and bulk, the Cascade responds better to ...

Re: Fiberglass Mold Making

... to paddle, and durable, I should get one. I wish Western/Clipper made Viper 11.5 - 11 is too wet, but 12 is too big. I should try Jenny's Hellman Otter. Yarnellboat.

Soar

"Soar" makes a popular model. IC's are gaining popularity for tripping in Canadian north as several can be stored inside a Twin Otter, cutting flight costs. Pretty forgiving, carry lots of gear, but performance sucks. Rig one with a transom, stick a 2 horse outboard on it, and then tow ...

Re: Solo Canoe Advice.

Last time I was in Whitehorse, a few years ago now, there was a Hellman Otter kicking around - you should track it down and try it. Can't recall whose it was, but I'm sure you could find it if you ask the likely suspects. Around Vancouver there's been good deals ...

Re: A bit scared....

Yeah, I was there, nervous to backferry across the gentle class II Cheakamus in my new-to-me 14' Old Town Otter! That must've been circa 2001. And then Eli was in the neighbourhoodd last summer. That's basically been it for us. Though Roger & Allyson offer good courses and the ...

Re: Choosing a boat?

... canoeists. I'm about your size, sadly a little heavier, and FWIW my last boat search was narrowed down to the Viper 12, L'Edge, Ocoee or Hellman Otter. Many other small/modern boats I find just don't carry my weight well enough or are too wet. In plastic, I guess you're looking at an Octane, ...

Re: Splash guard for Viper??

... try a different hull than the Outrage, the Ocoee was the way I went, also considered the Viper 12, L'Edge and would be interested to try a Hellman Otter. That's still pretty much the line-up for heavy guys, with most of course going for the newer, plastic L'Edge. I'm not sure what other boats would ...

Re: what is the best Boat for a 4'8" , 100# beginner ?

Hellman Canoe makes the Otter, it is super light, really tough... Not the fastest boat out there, but not a pig. If you get it with wood gunnels, it is quite a good boat!
