Great stuff, Sea-1 vs. Sea Wind?
I have enjoyed reading your trip journal, especially the part about the ‘portage from hell’!
I was wondering how you are liking the Sea-1 on your trip. And did you consider a Kruger Sea Wind instead? I would be very interested in any comparisons, pros & cons opinions that you might have.
Good luck!
Sea 1 / Kruger
I’ve been very, very happy with the Clipper Sea 1 canoe, it has handled everything with relative ease thus far. The Kruger’s are harder to find and cost considerably more money so I never considered one as an option although I do believe that they too making very good tripping canoes and I’m sure it would have been very suitable for my trip as well. The big test comes next month when I take on Lake Superior, can hardly wait for that!
Also, I should point out that Clipper Canoes is one of my sponsors on this trip and they generously have provided me with the Sea 1 kevlar canoe. It is a great boat!
