I think they are starting with the most popular models and would expand from there. Echo at 45 pounds is not too bad right now - fairly easy to shoulde
I’m debating between the Adirondack and the echo, will be a fishing,hunting and backcountry solo boat. Lots of time in Algonquin and southern rivers of Ontario. Already own a tandem canoe looking specifically at a solo
For speed and maneuverability the echo. For primary stability the Adirondack. For lots of gear, the prospecteur 15 or Huron 15. Personally I really love the echo. I would probably take it in olive with vinyl trim for hunting to save on maintenance and look sleek in the woods. Come try them side by side if you come to the Ottawa area.
@@Paddle_ca also I read a Reddit post I think from you actually about the keel of the Adirondack getting worn to the hull before a scratch on the bottom of the hull, would one of the Kevlar keel protection kits help with that?
Great video ! That lake is beautiful. Now I want a canoe even more !
Let's Go!!!!
Hahah thanks Dave!
Echo would be nice with the new T-Formex Lite. Are there plans to offer the Lite across the full line from Esquif?

@@Paddle_ca how hard is it to get a removable yoke for the echo? Definitely a boat that will be doing some big portages

@@Nerdthan2 it’s fairly easy to add a yoke to either boats and skid plates would help the Adirondack a bit.
