"Highly caressable, folks!" My favorite line thus far, and plenty of reason to choose the carbon kevlar trim.

[@kevinduffy8800]

Very nice boats! I like the tumblehome on the Prospector 14. . .

[@paulwg2112]

Wow. So much attention to the details in pack seat design!

[@ItsGoodintheWoods]

Cheers to the lightweight pack boats!

[@maplehouseknives]

Anyone have experience with that seating arrangement while using a normal canoe paddle instead of a double paddle?

[@57Dalv]

I have the Keewaydin 15 canoe version with the foot braces. Is the foot bar interchangeable with the mounts for the braces? I would like the bar but don't want to drill holes in my boat, which I love. Thanks

[@billswift8022]

We can install the Carbon Foot braces and fill the holes for the kayak foot braces. Where are you located?

I’m curious about the seatback webbing…. Has anyone reported any slippage at the buckles? I have experienced extensive slipping in all my years as a whitewater paddler. When the manufacturers switched to ratchet systems, it was heaven.

[@SwiftCanoeKayak]

I'm sure its possible, especially on an older boat where the webbing may be worn or UV damaged, but I haven't heard of that issue from a customer before. I'm a big guy and have never had the buckles slip during some long days paddling with Bill

[@billswift8022]

We have never had a customer comment on our straps slipping! You should try one, I think you will be impressed :)

[@erikbarkefors2441]

I am 1,94 meter (~6'4") tall with 36" inseam. Do I fit in the Pack 12.6?

[@conniewaite1371]

Interested in the 12ft 6 boat.how much weight can it carry?

[@SwiftCanoeKayak]

Hi Connie, you can get all the specs on the 12.6 here- swiftcanoe.com/boat/pack-12-6/
