Default Canoe opinion?

Amongst a very learned treatise on canoe materials, riverman wrote:
Some boats,
like Coleman, use a very thin layup of ABS to save weight, and aluminum
tubes to help it keep its shape. This is bad.


Colemans are/were made of RAM-X polyethylene, not ABS, which is a
different material altogether. The second sentence is correct.
