    Absolutely beautiful canoe and I find myself just staring at all the little hand crafted details regularly. The pictures on their site simply don't do it justice. When I told them I planned on paddling it they go super excited as apparently most of them end up in collections and on display.

    Finally loaded up and took my kayak/sup hybrid on its maiden voyage. Was an overall success. As you can see I went with the cheap bed extender method. Works great for now. Can't wait to find more small water. Caught a 3lb LMB right across from the boat ramp. Might be time to sell my big boat....

    Guessing you dumped? At least gear is the only thing you lost. Question though, how's getting the outback up there? I have an outback myself but just put it in the bed with an extender. I've looked at some racks though just not sure.

    Its not hard with two ppl. It is heavier than my Revo tho. I had installed an elevated seat in the Revo. Just trying it out for the first time. Made it a little top heavy. All was good till I dragged a big ass red in the boat with me. He had gotten wrapped around my Mirage drive so I unhooked the leash and unlocked them from the yak. The drive sank. Both rods/reels had leashes but I unhooked them while rearranging while I was catching bait.

    Did that when I rolled and lost a rod my phone and some other little things in the bay. Couldn't even come close to finding anything. When I dove down it was so murky couldn't see a foot in front of you.
