Swift Keewaydin 14 Pack Boat - My First Paddle - Review - Impressions - Different Paddle Lengths 4K

This video documents my first paddle with my (new to me) Swift Keewaydin 14 Pack Boat. I purchased a used boat in the Carbon Innegra layup. I paddled the boat with four different paddles (48” Single Blade, 210cm double blade, 230cm double blade, 250cm double blade). I provide my first impressions of the boat and compare/contrast with my Old Town Pack, Hornbeck NT and Placid Boatworks Shadow.

That is such a nice canoe! Glad you got a chance to get out for a paddle. My 250cm paddle seems to work best for me

I like a shorter paddle than most people.

Thanks for the review. Last year, I was looking for either a Swift or Placid Boatworks used for the Adirondack tripping. I was about to give up and test a new one and then this boat came up an hour from me in Pennsylvania. A very rare find of a good canoe in PA. I have come up 3x times with it so far and couldn't be happier. It was barely even uaed.
