Tengu finds a Canoe

[Tengu]

Its a Pioner kano

I have looked on the company website, they dont specialise in canoes but mostly working vessels.

Has anyone seen one like this?

 

[Miyagi]

No - but it looks good.

Tengu, I'm in awe at what you find.

Looks like a fun little craft.
Is it GRP or fibreglass?I like the look of those seats.Luxury.
Cheers , Simon

 

[Tengu]

Its some kind of PVC

Each seat is a bouyancy tank, the front one has a watertight hold.

Nice find!

Well done Tengu, looks like a good user

Plenty of room up front for some camping gear too by the looks.

This why women get the **** taken out of them by blokes. The water should be on the outside.

Apologies Tengu. The hard boys wound her up.

Hey, if the water stays in then the boat's waterproof, isn't it?
Nice find tengu.
Did you buy it??

 

[Tengu]

Yes, if a boat can contain water....

 

[Tengu]

Well, was delivered today, not bad for £350. (considering new they are £1100)

Ill post more pics when its cleaned up

Looks like some sort of canoe-kayak hybrid...those bucket seats make me think it would be easier to propel with a double-blade paddle.
Did paddles come with?

 

[Tengu]

Yes.

it came with dingy paddles

From what I gather from the website its been designed with the hiring trade in mind.

it seems to have at one point posessed rowlocks!!!!!
