FOUND! Dagger/Mad River Legend 15
Would like to buy a Dagger/Mad River Legend 15 for pickup reasonably close to Knoxville, TN.

Re: WTB Dagger/Mad River Legend 15
There was a Legend 16 for sale, and I don't think it ever sold. Sound hull and gunwales, some endplate work to do.
My opinion: Legend 15 is marginal for tandem, a foot short for poling, and not agile enough as a ww solo.
The 16 is fine for tandem, a nice platform for poling, and no worse as a ww solo than the 15.

Re: WTB Dagger/Mad River Legend 15
The Legend 16s are fine boats. I know of at least 3 that are currently for sale. I have paddled the 16 and have owned MR Explorers, Mohawks, Seda Scout, Blue Hole OCA, etc but the Legend 15 is the best all rounder I have paddled. I owned one and sold it due to lack of space after a move and have regretted it ever since. The boat performed well as a tandem on multi-day whitewater trips on the rivers on the east shore of Lake Superior and solo on the lower Yough and Casselman in PA. Hope I can find one here in the SE.
