Another Satisfied Customer!

"Gentlemen -

I just wanted to drop you a note about how pleased I was with my NuCanoe this season. To this point I have primarily used my NuCanoe for hunting on the North Canadian River. I was surprised, that even loaded down with tree stands, all kinds of hunting and camera gear, the NuCanoe did not set down in the water. And the width of the NuCanoe also made it extremely stable. Fully loaded the NuCanoe flew through 4 to 5 inches of water and at times maybe even less. Even for a novice the NuCanoe was extremely easy to maneuver. I have never used the double kayak style paddle before and I was amazed how easily I could make the NuCanoe fly up and down the river with this style paddle. If the NuCanoe is this much fun in the hands of someone that doesn’t know what they are doing, I can only imagine what an experienced person can do. My NuCanoe surpassed my expectations in every way. Anyway, I wanted to let you how happy I am with my new NuCanoe and it’s performance."

NuCanoe Swivel Seats

Here are a few photos of another development project: Swivel seats for the NuCanoe.

NuCanoe + Torqeedo = Making Waves

We have the opportunity to test out a Torqeedo trolling motor with the NuCanoe...and have a little fun at the same time. The Torqeedo 801 Travel motor offers 2hp in a portable unit weighing less than 30lbs - including the lithium ion battery.

Put the Torqeedo motor on the NuCanoe and you'll just about be flying. If you're looking to get upstream in a river quickly, or cover a long distance in a short amount of time, this is the motor for you.

Rocking the Nooksack

Paddling the Nooksack River on July 12, 2008 near Glacier, WA. The river is rated Class II in this section - read about it on the AmericanWhitewater.org.

The NuCanoe performed great! It was very stable and maneuverable, even in the fast water. When going through sections of big rapids, the NuCanoe did take on water, sometimes a lot. But that didn't cause any problems. Another benefit is that the NuCanoe is bouyant and floats upsidedown...so even if the paddler falls out and the NuCanoe tips over, you can still climb on and paddle your way to shore.

Overall, a great day. Getting into Class II water has its inherent risks, but the NuCanoe performs well and is very maneuverable. On the Class I & unrated sections, it was a relaxing comfortable float down the river.

A Happy Anniversary with a NuCanoe

From a customer of Eagle Creek Kayaks in Zionsville, IN. She bought her parents a 12' Desert Sand NuCanoe for their Anniversary.

Marc,

A picture of my parents with their NuCanoe. They were shock needless to say. It even brought tears to my father's eyes when we drove in Saturday with it on Memorial Day weekend, and believe me that is not something that comes easily. But both were elated to receive their Anniversary gift. They took it out today on Lake Wausau, which is a sizable lake along with many other boat enthusiasts on such a lovely day, and my mother said she felt very secure in it and my father said that that even in the motor boats' wake the NuCanoe was very stable, and he kept wanting the motor boats to bring on more! I want to thank you for all your efforts in making this dream possible for them.

Paddling down the Skagit River

The river was high and moving swiftly, adding to the fun of an afternoon float down the Skagit River in Northwest Washington. The weather was great, and the NuCanoes made the trip as relaxing and enjoyable as could be.
