Pelican Dare Devil under £300 at Costco

[clcuckow]

I was in Costco last week and they have gone one better one there open canoe this year and are selling the pelican dare devil (aka the cooler canoe) for the same price that they sold the Colorado last year and with wooden paddles as well. All for under £300 inc VAT.

One thing though if it is like last year when I bought my Colorado you might have to assemble it in the car park before you can top it.

my Colorado cost me £195 from Costco last year.

Got the ex-display one and haggled with them as it had some scratches and no paddles (didn't the paddles anyway).

That was a bloody good deal and the paddles last year were the cheap plastic/AL ones anyway.

Good enough to find out if get on with open canoeing. They are made in Canada buy the company that made them for Coleman. I am happy with my Colorado after a year. The is a bit of 'oil canning' but it is fine and the Colorado is a popular first canoe and can be seen going for more that £300 second hand on evilbay.
