Boatin like it’s 1995

The Prijon T-Canyon. Introduced in plastic in 1987. State of the Art creekboat when the Perception Dancer was king. 11 feet long. No rocker. Very fast. Great boat for attainments. One of the first boats with a large keyhole cockpit. Also one of the first with a bulkhead footbrace. Prijon’s plastic is legendary for how well it holds up. One thing the T-canyon is infamous for is “missile lock”. Paddle the boat long enough and you will experience this phenomena. The boat will lock onto a course, usually heading someplace bad that you do not want to go. No matter what kind of stroke you throw, the boat ain’t turning. Good luck with that. For this reason, some folks in the mid-Atlantic region nick named the boat the “T-Beast”. Due to the lack of rocker and length the Canyon is a hard boat to boof. Due to its lack of rocker it will plunge to the bottom of whatever pool you miss your boof into. If you ever want to find out how deep the pool at the base of a waterfall is, take the T-Canyon. Due to that lack of rocker, the canyon will drill a hole in the pool, stop, then slam into reverse. The boat will explode into a mighty back ender, sending you back into the curtain of the waterfall you just ran. This is how rodeo was invented back in the day. Good times!! Suffice to say, its a fun boat to paddle! Livens up those runs that have gotten a little boring 😉 For the Chattooga, the boat will blow the doors off everything else going across the lake, getting you back to the beer cooler way faster than anyone else you are boating with. Then again, the boat has a tremendous amount of storage space. Fitting a case of PBR in the back of the boat will be no problem.
