To start of this years camping season I decided to finally get a canoe that would hopefully make portaging a little bit easier. This Esquif Adirondack weighs about half of what my old canoe weighs which has me excited to get out on some more challenging adventures. I decided to go camp on an island for the night to try out the new canoe and get out for the first trip of the year.

Congratulations on the new canoe. I picked up a blue Adirondack at the beginning of March. I've had it out about 15 times now and absolutely love mine. Can't wait to get it out camping in the Adirondacks with my small dogs..... Enjoy

That’s awesome! Can’t wait to get out on mine on a actual trip. The Adirondack’s looks like a beautiful area to camp. I’ll have to get out there one day.

Congratulations on the new canoe. You are going to be able to do so much more and go so much further. Looking forward to some new videos of some amazing trips.

Thank you!! Just got the first trip booked. Really excited to get out there and put this canoe to the test.

That's the way to do it. 👍 Great choice of a boat, thanks for the review, think I've talked myself in to one too!

@castawaytv Месяц назад

That’s awesome! I’m sure you will enjoy it, im excited to get out more this year!

@papacampoutdoors Месяц назад

You built all that strength up from the old one this one is light weight yeah buddy!

@castawaytv Месяц назад

Hahah exactly! Had to make sure I was really into it before getting a canoe like this. Now the trips will be that much more enjoyable!!

Congratulations on your Esquif Adirondack canoe. I purchased the same canoe in March of 2023 and I absolutely love it. Likeven you, I spent 2 years doing research on pack boats. I put in a removable yoke as well. Be safe and enjoy this year with your new canoe. Cheers

Thank you! I just did a big trip in Algonquin and this canoe made it so much more enjoyable. I was surprised how well it handled rough waters. Can’t wait for more adventures in the canoe

Just had this video suggested. In October I will be 14 years sober myself. I’m so happy for you and the new path in life you have chosen to follow. I found a used solo canoe (Bell Wildfire) and though not as lightweight as yours, it has made a huge difference in my ability to get outdoors with my advanced rheumatoid arthritis. Hopefully your canoe will serve you well for many years! BTW, what tent are you using in this video?

@castawaytv Месяц назад

That’s amazing, congratulations! I’m coming up on 4 years now. That’s a nice looking canoe! I almost got a used swift osprey but was unsure about the stability. I think this canoe will be great for what I plan to do. The tent is a Woods 3 man A Frame from Canadian tire! I keep it in the truck for emergency or trips I’m not portaging but is fairly bulky/ heavy. Great tent tho

@MauricioPorrasPlazaPonte Месяц назад

Nice video man. I have the same canoe man. You can get removable yoke at Northstar canoe

@castawaytv Месяц назад

Thank you! I did end up ordering a Northstar but got the wrong size lol o figured out a fix for it tho so I’m ready to get out on the next adventure👍🏻

Awesome video. Like you I love everything about the Adirondak, but I'm a little concerned about the length. I don't have a ton of gear, but dont want to feel cramped on longer trips, especially if I'm trying to fish as well. I keep talking myself into 14', but thr Adirondak is hard to ignore with everything it offers, especially at the price.

@castawaytv 19 часов назад

Man I love the Adirondack. After doing my trip in Algonquin I am more then satisfied with this canoe. The weather was wild and I never felt unsafe as I pushed my way through and was also able to keep the gear organized and still be comfortable. One of my best investments for sure!

@cowbway8462 Месяц назад

Hey Jake. Just a question for you and it’s not about canoes. I know off topic. But when you got clean or maybe after or before, did you accept Christ Jesus as your Saviour? Not preaching. Just might help me on my journey.

@castawaytv Месяц назад

Hey @cowbway8462! For me my journey was kind of getting more into the outdoors and doing a lot of solo adventures that pushed me out of my comfort zone. This kind of led to me just really learning who I was and being comfortable alone and without substance. I’ve never been an overly religious person but I have had many moments that would lead me to believe there is more going on then what meets the eye.

@cowbway8462 Месяц назад

@@castawaytv I appreciate that and your honesty. I absolutely love your content (and I mean I love it Jake!) and your journey and your back story. Huge fan! Maybe next time you’re out there reflect on who provided that peace and glorious wilderness for you to explore and enjoy. It has nothing to do with religion. Nobody needs religion. But everyone needs Jesus. Sounds like a paradox I know. But it’s the Truth. Look into it.

@@castawaytvI think I could talk you for hours about your experience and never mention God, Jesus, or religion. You’re amazing, stay strong, reach out if you falter. One day at a time.
