Just another clip from yesterdays pedal drive canoe testing. It doesn’t give me quite the same satisfaction as using a canoe paddle, but it’s faster, easier to push into the wind, and most importantly, I can actually do it with my spinal injury! . . . #canoelife #buildit #skinonframe #prototyping | Cape Falcon Kayak

Just a bit of early morning canoe testing. I like the new seat and tiller assembly; steering is exactly where my hands naturally fall and doesn’t shift when I take my hands off the tiller. The drop seat adds a bit more stability to this narrower pedal drive canoe (they can be build any size I just chose to go small on the prototype to explore the lower limits). Good ergonomics and effortless motion. This gives me everything I need to move onto the next prototype and start working on plans. . . .
