Outrage and Caption discontinued - Royalex victims?

[Michel vd Hoven]

I just saw on the Mad River Canoe website that both the Outrage and Caption are no longer offered and are now listed under the "discontinued models" section...

Is this the direct result of the end of Royalex or is MRC stepping away from the white water arena? Any hope that these models become availible again when a new royalex like material shows up?

"Royalex like materials"are nonexistent.

Let's hope that Esquif's development of their replacement material is coming along.

And if your interested in either of those two boats check out sierra trading post. Probably one of the last places you could find one, and the shipping isn't that bad.
