Do you know the date for that event? (Potomac correct?)

May 21-23. May 22 would be the day on the North Branch Potomac.

Looking good, Craig.

This may have been covered already, but any word on how big a guy can be to paddle a l'Edge?

6'3'', 220?

All the impute Ive been getting about it and most canoes in General is depends on skill.

I have bees led to believe that altho its not tdesigned for a bigger paddler like myself 6'1" 230 lb, its a lot more stable and drier than the skeeter I was trying to use.

You can pre-order the L'Edge from Millbrook Boats. Price is $1,653US, outfitted. AND, there is no sales tax in NH.
thanks,

So how is this boat going to be outfitted? How about some outfitting pictures?

So, it will be a solid block of plastic and the owner will carve out their own "personal space"?

Craig Smerda wrote:I can't give final specs until some production boats are actually pulled from the mold. Here are the numbers we are expecting.

Length: 9'-2"-ish
Width: 28-1/2" (not including the outermost splash/grab rail)
Center depth: 16" + change on "decked" models
End height: 20-21"
Volume: 149 gallons... not that this means anything

Have more been pulled yet? Got any rock solid specs?

You bet!!!
Plus... we'll still be able to lower the gunnels on the "open" version for folks that sit a little lower or prefer a lower gunnel/sheer line.

Any pictures (real or simulated) of the open version? For that matter, any real pictures of a production boat in any configuration yet?

Craig Smerda wrote:As soon as I know the MSRP I'll post (edit) it right here.

Is Kaz's $1653 price including bags? I know it says outfitted - also pictures of outfitting?

I'm needy - can't you tell?

May 1st has come and gone... Haven't found any dealers suggesting they have possession of the L'Edge. I'm hoping I can find one in New England to demo this summer. I might even renew my passport and visit the factory for a chance!

Thanks,
Shep
