WTB solo canoe - downriver and I-II+ ww

[kouk]

I'm looking for a multi-purpose solo boat. I know, I know, if it can do everything it won't do anything particularly well. I just don't have the money or space for a fleet, so I'll do my best.

I'm not a beginner, but I have been on dry land for a while. I've just moved to West Virginia and I'm not sure what kind of paddling I'll get into here. Surely a lot of down-river day trips, but I love whitewater and, furthermore, I don't want to rule out camping trips (overnights, 3-days). I want to keep ww options open and don't mind leaning to keep a squirrely boat straight on patches of flat water. Hoping not to lug around something too heavy, but I'm realistic. Your suggestions and offers are welcome!

Perhaps you have something in the 13ft-14ft range like a...

Mad River/Millbrook Flashback
Dagger Ladyslipper

Secondarily, I'm looking to meet boaters in West Virginia. I'm in Tucker/Randolph county.

I have information & photos of Mad River Flashback models I & II, but I see no way to send you a private message.
