I bought a Adirondack last week and took it out for the first time a couple days. It's compact but roomy at the same time, I'm also pleased with the glide over my 10'9" kayak while still being maneuverability for pond hoping in the Adirondacks. I considered old town 119 also but the esquif is 10 pounds lighter and was only $120 more than the 119, $1105 +tax for a blue camouflage at a local place here in the park,end of season sale.

Nice. Now I'm interested in this boat! Was about to buy an Old Town Next. I'll have to keep researching now. Lol

man that is the best yak/canoe shop I've ever seen, the range is unbelievable. Most shops have a very small selection, which tends to make you choose something you may not have if you'd had more choice. Well done on a great shop

Wow, great breakdown of this pretty little boat! Kudos to Esquif for picking up the slack when the other makers are dropping off. Thank you!

Esquif do make Beautiful canoes! 😍

Just purchased a huron 15 from Lancaster was up in the air about which canoe was right for me.i spoke with Dale from Lancaster he was very helpful after choosing thr huron they bubble wrapped the heck out of it put it on a ward tuck and 490 miles a day and a half later received my huron in perfect shape ty Dale and his team.

Looks nice and light weight , how ever I'm looking for something to fish out of for long days on the water , looking at the Discovery Sportsman Solo 119 for that as it has a comfy seat and set up for fishing.

Echo are really great love the one I have.

Nice wrap up to the history of plastic pack boats. Only other one could think to mention is the Novacraft Trapper, about three inches wider.

Great canoe. I am very happy with it. I highly recommended.

Boat looks real good for rocky river fishing . I have an OT 119 Any idea how this compares stability wise? Would love to know if the Next seat would fit in this canoe or my 119

I own an Old Town Pack. Love it but, it ain’t no race horse. It “oil cans” a bit and if it were stiffer, I’m sure it would track a little better. Love to paddle one of those Adirondacks. Thanks!

I'd definitely buy it without a keel!

Great video, really nice review. How does this perform vs. the Echo in flatwater to Class II water? or put another way, who would recommend the Echo to vs. who would you recommend the Adirondack to?

@LancasterCountyMarine

3 жыл бұрын

The Echo has a shorter profile in the water so it's less effected by the winds. I think you would want the Echo for bigger waters with more flat area paddling. The Class 2 waters I give the edge to the Adirondack Pack. There is 2 feet less to manage in turns. So river runners, the Adirondack Pack is your boat, Lake Paddlers the Echo is your machine. -Isaiah

Hey you gonna do any videos on new Chaparral?

I wish someone would build models similar to the Mohawk Odyssey 14 and 15 solos since Mohawk is not doing it. I think they could help save the canoe market.

How well does it track? I am wanting a solo canoe for fishing and wilderness camping.

I bought one in September 2020, so did not have a chance to use it with a double blade. So far, so good. Only complaint is that the seat, as is with webbing, is too slippery! I'll replace it with something with more friction.

@@mikecasey8950 any complaints about the boat? How does it hold up dragging across shallow rocky waters? I’m looking at this or the old town next, but kinda wanna step it up from a old town. If I had this I think I might put a folding seat on the bench? The light weight factor is a big selling point for me as I will be paddling all day and loading by myself. Sometimes after a day of paddling my arms are like noodles and it’s harder for me to lift on and off the roof rack alone.

@@thatdude4000 Unfortunately I only got to use it a few times in the fall due to late shipment. The material looks as tough or tougher that Royalex. I plan to use a double blade paddle to try that in the spring. OT Next you can only use a DB paddle? Hard to portage I would think as no thwart....would be easy to install. It seemed to windcock more than I would have liked....that's why I want to try the DB paddle.

I’m surprised Old Town has not brought back the Pack 12. Perhaps they can not buy the T formax material. Guess it’s not in Esquif’s interest to have too many manufacturers making product that competes directly with their products. They make the Tformex themselves. The Pack 12 was around 10lbs lighter, so even though T-formex is a similar material, that is quite a difference in weight.

Translation into French subtitles is awful. Flat bottom and keel canoes are usually designed for still water. Never tried one in class I or II white waters. Just bought mine lately. Not my 1st 12 foots canoe. I installed an homemade removable portage yoke. I greatly appreciate its light weight.
