Sigh / One more reason to hate Coleman Canoes. ( Pelican/Coleman canoe seat separation) [nt]

Steve, unfortunately you may not have bought it cheap in absolute terms, but it is certainly the most cheaply manufactured canoe known to Americans, and it is about the cheapest in relative terms, here. But, having said that (and absent matters of detail like the seats, of which I've heard nothing) the Coleman turns out to be one of the most durable canoes on the American market. Beg pardon? Durable only if you don't bump rocks, have a snowbank form on it or drop it off your roofrack. Any canoe will be 'durable' if not subjected to stresses, but Coleman's are notorious for having their aluminum skeletons warp out of shape when subjected to forces that other boats rebound from. --riverman |
