Looking To Trade a new Esquif Taureau For a spanish Fly.

Any Boat, Gear, or outdoor related item you have for sale. If you use it on a paddling trip, or to prepare for one, it's fair game.

Looking to Trade my New Taureau for a Spanish Fly in equally good Condition.
The Taureau has been paddled 1 time on the Hiwassee has new airbags (did'nt come with the Boat) I just can't seem to roll the dam thing.
It's still slick and shiny.

For me; boating brings me closer to to something divine, and in a open canoe I'm 8 Inches closer.

Try a little less concentration on hip snap, and a little more paddle. The Taureau tends to want to be right side up or up side down. A slow steady hip snap and pull your body into the boat like a traditional open boat never seemed to work well in this boat for me. A little more paddle to get the boat upright and I bet you will have more luck. Just my 2 cents-
