The new Frontier looks like a great river boat. I like the changes they made to the new model. I agree w/ the poster above, 76# is a little heavy for a 12' canoe/hybrid. However, it should be a hit...except for the price. Over 1,000 bucks is too much, IMO. I currently am paddling a Old Town 119 solo canoe which has proven to be a fantastic ride, and I can buy 2 OT solo canoes for the price of one Frontier. Not to take away from the qualities of the new NuCanoe, as I'd like to have one, but not for that price.
Just my $0.02.
