A highly maneuverable solo for small rivers and whitewater paddling.
This is a crossover design; it's highly capable on fast water, but it travels quite well with less of a current, too.
The Rendezvous has 2 1/2" of rocker to turn quickly, and deep,
flared ends to deflect waves. Its wide, full hull also gives plenty of
buoyancy on frothy water. Lightly loaded, this hull loves to play, and
many people buy it just for that reason alone.
But it's not a quirky whitewater dart, rather a downriver canoe. It
has an efficient shape and tumblehome for effective paddling. Its
performance loaded makes it ideal for trips on fast water, where it has
plenty of agility and seaworthiness.
Rendezvous is outfitted with a fixed, web seat that is angled down
slightly in front. This configuration gives greater control to a person
who is kneeling, which is the posture favored by most whitewater
paddlers.
