Wenonah Rendezvous, Whitewater on the Flooded Root River

[1993FreeStyle]

why not just kayak?

Great paddling skills. I have the first Rendezvous with wood trim (kevlar center rib) and I love it. I would not trade if for any other boat I have ever paddled. Great all around craft. I wish I could paddle that well though.

I would love to find a kevlar core rendezvous (original design).....

Interesting video but I sure wouldn't promote anyone going into floor waters for any reason other than rescuing someones life.

I had a Rendezvous for a couple years. I swam more times in that canoe than any other I've owned. Something about the "bubble"bilge (evident at 1:19) always caught the water at the wrong time.

@hoz49 There's a lot to be said about paddling skills.

@brentrobertson1 yep, I've been paddling over 40 years and have manymulti week Canadian wilderness river trips logged. But that "bubble bilge" was a freak I never got used to.
