How to Assemble an Ally Canoe

[@stevec-b6214]

perfect video - i would only add advice `take your time` when first few assemblies are a bit stiff, take a break, dont force things into place by rushing, especially in hot weather.

Honestly this looks great. Yes, it might seem like bit of a chore assembling it, but as I am sure you can keep it up in storage once assembled, and as it seems very sturdy overall, it does win over a big lumpy wood/plastic canoe. Not only is it lightweight, but with the possibility of storing it in a box it seems much easier bringing to new places to paddle, even with a bike. The option of moving the seats for 1 - 2 people also makes it seem like a perfect fit for the person who wants to be able to bring someone else with, but not always. Not to mention, after some digging, its not much more expensive than normal canadian canoes.

Ingenious design and materials. Found your site through Swedwoods KZbin Channel.

The video skips the most difficult step at the most replayed part of the video. How the heck do you put down the extremity pieces without ripping the kanu skin and suddenly the skin is nice and tight like a frame drum ?!! I have to lay on my back and to block the tube junction with my feet while I'm streching out the skin and a friend put down the tube at the same time. I'm considering to sew a webbing to solve this issue.

I just bought one. I have assembled it twice. I keep getting wrinkles on the bottom of the canoe where the ribs are. Wonder if this affects the glide? An tips on how to avoid these wrinkles?

this is only an aesthetic item, dont worry about it

[@1.123]

is it meant to be disassembled at the end of the day? i am looking for that possibility.

[@Greenaresy]

You can if you want, but it can be stored assembled.

my canoe origami is what youre looking for.

Can this canoe run white water?

[@yarpenzigrin1893]

Yes but if you run over sharp rocks or trees you probably will tear the fabric. It's much less resistant than the typical hard shell canoe.

hmmmm, I am not sure about this one , Saturday I will be assembling this rubber ship and Sunday I have a long drive back home

[@flagday84]

Anyone know where I could rent one of these?

[@tombeckett4340]

Thanks not exactly recommend for River running with rocks. 😬

[@rullestaden]

you'd be suprised at the whitewater these can handle!

[@stevec-b6214]

these things are TOUGH - have you watched nordkalotten365?

This looks very frustrating.

[@BergansOfNorway]

Actually it´s not Peggy. Maybe we should refresh the video. ;)

[@Qgal5kap123]

It gets easier over time ;-) Second time you won't have to glue stuff.
