There are a ton of red canoes. The L'Edge is a catchy design. Make it in a not often seen, catchy color (like envy green), and people will be rear-ending each other in eddies and going down rapids backwards to crane their necks and see what you are paddling.Craig Smerda wrote:I've been privately referring to it as envy green... until just now.Todhunter wrote:Craig - I have always said the green one you showed me was the color that I would just HAVE to own.

Craig, as far as colors go:

Yellow.. a nice, mango-ish yellow. Thats probably the other "best/most prevalent" boat colour compared to red, but I personally like it very much. Other commercially interesting options would be: black (badasss, rare) or transparent (not happening in PE, really, but could get close).
Transparent would also include the option of user-paint INSIDE the hull where it can't be scratched by rocks (only those pesky little ones called sand and gravel.. WHY do these always end up in my boat???
.
I like the customizable aspect of that.
Also nice would be more toned down, matte-ish colours. basically anything you can find on any spark, as a solid colour ;D.
