I flip my other canoes with an assist from the clamp on detachable yoke all the time. Never had an issue. Done it with this homemade screw on yoke too, never thought about it. Bouncing on the road is a lot more stress, when I think about it. I really envisioned the anchors being lavishly epoxied into the CF gunnels. Now that I know they’re just a glorified wall anchor, I wouldn’t imagine they’d be as strong a connection. I’ve always had aluminum gunnels, I reckon. Next boat, I’m going wood! At 44 lbs, I likely won’t adventure too far from the water with this Swiftie on my shoulders. My shoulders suck as it is. While I love the feel, handling and stability of the P14, it needs to be 12 lbs lighter to be a tripper. I’d love to have a p14 in a lighter hull, but not at the prices I’m seeing.
