skeeter

Post by billcanoes »

Hi,

I would consider the Skeeter more of a downriver boat than a freestyle boat. The skeeter turns quickly, and for its size it was fast enough, but I felt it was a little tippy. BTW I never took mine on anything hard, upper green in NC was the "creekiest" run it was on. I liked it for the smaller size and durable plastic were nice considerring the .5 mi hike out. I liked the Spanish Fly a lot, but I didn't use the Spanish Fly enough to warrant keeping it in my inventory.

paddling a flooded canoe is easy. stopping is easy as long as you have some kayaks to help you stop.

the outfitting is stalled right now, i am waiting for the shipment to come in from North Water, and in my head i am trying to figure out whether all of its gonna fit, cause the floatbags i have take up a lot of room, and its hard to visualize with out having hte saddle, footpegs and thigh straps in front of me....
i will try and borrow a digital camera in the next few days and get some pics
sorry about the tardiness of my reply.....i am a university student.....dam homework
