my paddling bride wrote out the check for the last prism bill had at sawbill. it's a 2008. i'll do a trip with it in may with the modified set-up. change it if i want, but what the heck,the shell is in awesome shape. i soloed quite a bit in my past married life, now i am getting back into it the past three years. just turning 56, i am reborn again!

Congrats on the new ride. And as a fellow 56 yr old getting back into the canoe scene in the last few years I know how good it feels to "be back". Happy paddling!

Way to go bwcasolo! Better buy her some roses and take her out for dinner! :)
Glad to see you "ole guys" soloing. I will be 55 in February.

Congratulations on the new canoe, bwcasolo. I believe quark2222 paddles the modified Prism also (seat moved rear about 20 inches to balance a single pack).
Who say's ya need be an old geez to paddle solo????

Congrats. I was online looking at Sawbills used canoes a couple of weeks ago (curiosity) and agree that it's in great shape. So easy to portage. So kind to shoulders.
