If money weren’t a factor I’d probably own them all. Eckilson…how big of a load and what kind of water do you generally do? I’ve looked at several canoes and narrowed it down to 2, the Nova Craft Supernova and the Northstar Phoenix IXP.
Really want to be able to run as many of the rapids as practicable. At 15 inches deep it is one big deep boat. Here’s a few shots from an 18 day solo trip on the Thoa River in the Northwest Territories that I took last July. Load the boat down and the rocker on the Supernova is not going to make much difference anyway. On the Supernova are you looking for the length or the rocker? I considered the Argosy, as there are a couple Wenonah dealers around, but I don’t care for the tumble home design and it doesn’t seem well regarded in very much whitewater. The Raven was designed for multiweek river trips. Just for kicks, here is Riverstrider running the only rapid on that trip - I think it is between Upper and Lower Saranack Lakes (most people use the lock): What a great trip that was, I’d love to do it again…. Wilderness Tripping. This canoe is specially made for river tripping. October 15, 2019, 6:14pm #1. I go 230, so it is quite a load. But between the higher price and cost to have it shipped, it puts them far enough ahead of the others to take them out of the running. The distinguishable feature of this type of canoe is the bottom of this canoe is flat. Thanks eckilson and kayamedic! This was the Moose River in ME and it has a little bit of everything - lakes, flatwater river and a couple of easy rapids. Also available in camo, green and red, the Old Town Canoes & Kayaks Discovery 119 Solo Canoe is the canoe of choice for solo adventurers. But it was teal. One of the trips I’m going to do is the Chattahoochee River…it’s rated at class ii/iii from Helen all the way to Atlanta. Time to get a boat ordered! (And, from what I have gathered from my research, you nor Northstar seem inclined to misrepresent your product just to move a boat.) Realistically, though, I’ve been stalking every classified for six plus months and the only things close that have come up were one Argosy that was beat to hell, one Rendezvous and a Baboosic. Whitewater Solo Canoes. I had it and the Argosy and there was no comparison… The Argo has a nasty hull cross section for real whitewater and very slim stems. Solo River Tripping Canoe Recommendation. Its now inexplicably made only in composite… Not t formex… Try to find a used Royalex one . Too be honest, that is about as much as I want to do in a loaded tripping canoe, and my Yellowstone/Wildfire were fine.
I’ll be doing river trips up to a week in the AL GA TN area. Might have been better with a full camping load. I’m with Northstar and very partial to the Phoenix, having paddled Wildfires and Yellowstone Solos a lot in the past.
