It already bit. I got a probe 13 instead. Works great.Steve S wrote:I agree with Arthur that the XL13 is a great boat to learn the basics of solo whitewater canoing. I paddled one for two years before graduating to a shorter, quicker OC1. But I kept the Mohawk to loan to family and friends who want to experience paddling whitewater solo without constantly swimming.
I bring it to Whitewater School every year to loan to a student who didn't realize that his/her lake canoe stuffed with flotation is not going to do the job.
