Our friend Ken came to pick up his sweet new Cruiser 16.8 solo canoe at our Muskoka HQ, so we figured we should sit down and talk about boats. Ken came up from New York to pick up his boat, and he's got a great story about why he needed to upgrade to an efficient solo tripper compared to his other two Swift boats. Chatting with the canoeing community helped him get the model narrowed down, and we were happy to help him the rest of the way.
