Choosing a whitewater canoe?
 
Upper Hooch looks like it will be around 1.0 at Cornelia, which is
getting close to the lower limit. You said you like technical, so
you'll have plenty of fun weaving around finding enough water to float
in. Wildwood Shop will probably not be open for shuttles, but you can
park in their lot for $3. Section II will be a little above 1.5, which
is enough to boat. It's so pretty up there I don't too much mind the
water level.No rain in sight. Enjoy.

Where you at? I'll make you a heck of a deal on a Dagger Genesis.

Thanks to all for their comments. Obviously if I buy used I am going to
learn in it, and then I will know better what I really want.

What I most want to avoid is a boat that is designed for use by experts,
and would be difficult for me to learn to use. My paddling instructor
advised against the Ocoee, for example, even though he had one he wanted
to sell.

I live in Colorado. We expect to travel to Arizona and New Mexico in
the next few months, so I could potentially pick up a canoe in those
states without going greatly out of my way.
