Paddling in water shallow enough to mess up the bottom of your boat must be awfully rough on paddles. Deep is good.

And patience.

Ok so thank you for all the great comments! I’m becoming increasingly interested in a canoe as that seems to be best for my area on some of the creeks I prefer to paddle as they have way less crowds. Anyone have thoughts on the Esquif Prospecteur 15? Its not royalex but is made of T-Formex material basically a royalex replacement. There’s actually a dealer 40 miles away. I might take a look at it this weekend.
I think you will find that about the perfect boat for what you want to do, The T-Formex is supposed to be an improvement over Royalex (which is no longer made).
