I like to paddle and fish too. Got the 119 and LOVE this boat. Super stable, tracks great, turns on a dime. I have room for a fishing crate and gear. Its pretty much a perfect solo canoe.

Just love these comparison videos! Both rides are nice. Made in USA!!!

I really wanted this video. Thanks.

Would be awesome if the exterior had a birch bark pattern

awesome video

Exact comparison I was looking for. Still don’t know which one to buy lol

Can you add a 2nd seat to the Next? Use for camping and short trips? Thanks!

thanks for the video how those in marina or rough water ? i want to get one.

What would you recommend for the Columbia River I'm planning a tour with a canoe but don't want to break the bank either

Thanks 🇨🇦👍

What is the msrp on the 119 Sportsman canoe?

can you put a trolling motor on the 119?

Can I cartop that Solo 119 with a traditional foam blocks and straps? The elevation of the seat support looks like it might be prohibitive? Or can it be done? ty

I still would pay up for another OT Pack, I love mine SO much... thanks for this compare vid though. I still think I'm gonna stay with the traditional 119 for my next boat. Mostly aesthetics for me. But I know...these new styles are catchy to most.

Good Video..I really like the old town discovery 119 solo sportsman. I have question, Is any way I can add the carrying yoke on this canoe Thanks cheers

@LancasterCountyMarine

2 жыл бұрын

I had another guy ask me that same question today. Unfortunately on solo Canoes you really cant add a center yoke. However, the boats are so slim it is easy to pick them up and carry them over your head.

Thanks for video. Looking at the Next, I have a short (5.5') bed truck with no racks on it now. What is best way to transport this securely? Seems like it might be a little long to just drop tailgate and strap down.

I have a Ford Ranger with a 5 ft bed. I open the tailgate, put the canoe in on an angle and tie it down on both ends, works fine. I also bought the Yakima HD Racks. I can put it on top or in the bed. After a long days trip, I throw it in the bed...lol Its easier.

Seriously looking at purchasing one these 2 canoes. What's the best/most effective way to secure this size boat against theft while out traveling? Obviously I won't leave it for long. But if I'm traveling and need to stop in at a grocery store or something, is there a commonly recommended locking system for a lightweight canoe when it's strapped to a roof rack? Thankyou for any input on the matter

@LancasterCountyMarine

Pick up a heavy duty security cable, about 9 foot. Wrap the cable around the seat frame and go around your crossbar. This is how I lock my boats up.

Sou do Brasil, gostei muito.

Which is harder to tip?

Would either of these be easier/faster to paddle than a 126 Loon? I'm leaning towards the 119 but I think the Next would be faster to paddle. Any suggestions? Some of the videos talk about how fast the 119 is.

@LancasterCountyMarine

2 жыл бұрын

It is possible to say the next could be as fast as a loon 126. I don’t think the 119 would be comparable

Can a second seat be installed for a child passenger (small 12 year old) to fish with me?

Which would be better for paddling a somewhat long along the coast with mild waves? I know none are ideal, but if I were to get one?

What is the price different of these canoes please comment Back and let me know thank you very much for this video

Been eyeballing these two for a while. I kayak camp using a rtm tempo sot. Great kayak, pretty quick even hauling my gear. I think one of these would make a bit nicer camping canoe. I'm in central Georgia, and all we have are lazy rivers near me. Tracking is a big deal. Which of these would make a better camping canoe? A typical weekend paddle is around 40ish miles. I don't want a slug on the water. I would love some advice, never owned a canoe. Really want the open cockpit for gear and comfort.

Based on what your looking to do, the old town Next would be the better canoe. In the video we talk about camping and cargo room. The next is a solid choice for what your describing.

The Esquif is 42 pounds. And they do not list a weight capacity. There are almost no boats in this realm that are lighter than 42 to 50 pounds. The only thing lighter than these are kayaks youd not trust in remotely the same environment and Kevlar boats. 50 pounds is not heavy for a boat.

Too bad the 119 doesn't come with oar locks

I had both boats. The Next has versatility, the 119, cannot be adjusted or modified. I really loved the Next. Not so much the Disco119, not a canoe, not a kayak, turkey bacon. Grown mans pool float
