canoe advice...

NANZ

Howzit.. I am just getting off a year's worth of rehab for my back, and started paddling again using a friends canoe.
I am wanting and ready to buy my own canoe now... Any suggestions of a canoe that I should look into getting?
I am 5ft8in 175lbs, and probably looking for a canoe that I am able to adjust seats with for more support.
Mahalo plenty for your help!

Check out these pics, the seats in the Fuze are totally customizable, You can shape them however you want for a cutom fit perfect for you. If you live on Oahu , you are in luck because expert seat shapers are over at the OC shop in Kailua ready to help out.

try to Pegasus and the Fuze- maybe the Kainalu. See what feels most comfortable to you . Kea Paiina (3865327)and Simeon Ke Paloma (233-8840) can set up a test drive on the Pegasus. Go for comfort- so test drive the canoe to see that it is the right one for you.!
