Submitted: 08-30-2011 by Steve This is my third year for my Royalex Wilderness, and generally, I like it real well. I'm a late starter, having waited until my early 60's to buy the canoe that I'd put off for 30 years, so I use it all I can.
I do like the tough Royalex material in our rocky Missouri rivers, and the weight is manageable, though I'm starting to see the benefit of a lighter canoe.
My one complaint has been a lack of stability. While I've only actually flipped a couple or three times, I find that I've got very little leaning leeway, and have never gotten past the point of feeling like I have to be cautious. |
