I ran into Mark Scriver and Jeff Leeland (two of the best canadians)paddling the two Taureau prototypes on the Upper Yough and Upper Gauley this past weekend. Outside of being the prettiest baby bottom smooth orange Prototypes I ever seen (Production molds). They ...

I paddled with Andrew this weekend and he had paddled the prototype Taureau earlier in the week. He was very syc'ed with the boat. Claimed it to be as fast as and Ocoee at around 8' and would also flatspin with easy. I can wait to try it myself. I'm excited ...

I`ll be going to the Moose Fest with Paul , Mark and Joe. Mark may have the proto of the Taureau for the Moose so I`ll get to take it for a spin then. It should paddle alot like the Spanish Fly ( same foot print ). I should have mine later this fall ( Mark has my order ...

... if that's a dumb idea, but I'll probably do that right after ...I buy a C1, re-outfit my OC, put wood gunnels on the Nitro.. and - oh yes - buy a Taureau. -sigh-

No, but Mark Scriver, Joe Langeman and Andrew Westwood were paddling the Spark - that boat's pretty cool as well - super fast and light. Don't know what the Taureau is like as it wasnt there. Looking forward to seeingit.

Mike, I saw the Spark at the Gatineau fest, it looks like a VERY fast boat, it definitely shold rock for running gates. Did Esquif have a Taureau at the Gull slalom? How does it look? Can't really tell from the pictures shown on the Esquif website. But I do definitely want to try it out! We'll ...

Alden: OC Taureau runs look impressive. Somewhere I have a videotape from Jim Michaud of some of the late 80s/ early 90s runs down the Taureau (back when no one knew the lines and it was an overnight trip). He was in his Whitesell ...

wow, i just checked out the pdf file that Adam posted. All joking aside, the Taureau looks very interesting. Of course when I see a boat like that I am tempted to say, "Why not just put a spray skirt on it for goodness sakes?" but the more you think about it, ...

oh shoot, i was hoping to name MY first boat design "the Taureau." now ill have to settle for "The James Bond." Although I'm also designing a follow up boat to the RPM. It's called "the IRS." It only comes in one color: gray. And my kids tell me I'm ...

... Scriver and Joe Langman were paddling the Spark. Nice 1-2 Sales action for Esquif! Good job, Kaz! :-D Secondly, can anyone shed any light on the Taureau? Has anyone seen it? paddled it? Do Tell! (Glenn, i think my next C-boat debate just got a little more complicated... good news is I have a ...

Ok, it's the summer and things are dry and Im eager to run some new stuff. Here's my list of rivers I want to run: 1) The Taureau in Quebec -- I have been trying to run this river every weekend for the last two months, and every weekend it's too high! Arrrrgh! 15 miles of wilderness ...
