I've been talking about buying the Nucanoe Frontier 12 for about 6 months now.

Quick little video of her maiden voyage. There will be rigging video's coming very soon!

Congrats! Great for standing ain't she?

Great to see ya out in her so quick!

Congrats Daniel!!

Cool vid, I've been seriously considering one of these to be able to take my kids with me when I go...I think the ability to go tandem or solo is very cool

Are the seats adjustable? Will they move forward and back to center weight? It looks like a great boat compared to a traditional tandem.

Congrats!!!

Yeah, its a piece of cake. I knew it would be easy, but wow.




You know me...It wasn't going to be long at all before I got a little slime on her.




Thanks! Now that I have my video editing software up and running, I'm going to start posting more.
I think everyone on here knows the reason I originally considered this boat was because of my son. He is always skittish to try new things. He wasn't in this boat 30 seconds before he relaxed and started having fun. I love the ability to remove his seat if I'm going solo. It allows me to stand up and access the front hatch if needed. Also, I can attach rod holders, and such, in the area where he would normally sit.




Yes, they are fully adjustable. Forward or back on the freedom track (basically a gear track) and the swivel 360 degrees. I've never been in a traditional tandem, but I can't imagine they preform this well.

The only complaint my son had was that the paddle kept dripping on his head. Thats why he is wearing my hat through half the video.

Congrats!

lots of great vids on the official Frontier page, one specifically shows it in action

Nucano is very smart with the way they promote their product. Even the anchor trolly has a video on how to install it.

I noticed that, as a visually based person that really helps. One question I did have for you was what kind of seats did you go with? Are they the 360 swivel kind?

Both are the 360 swivel, but I got the Max 360 and my son got the 360. The Max 360 has a much higher back and better quality seat/leather overall. The smaller one is perfect for him..half back on me is a full back on him. The new seat bases don't have any flex in them at all, which is a big improvement.

This video came out before the upgraded seat base, but it still shows you exactly what I've got. Mine is charcole..thats the only difference.

New seat base plus the max 360 seat is an awesome combo! The new rigid seat base is super strong and limits the sway of the previous seat base model.
