Hello:
I am new to the site. This seems like an amazing resource.
I am an outdoorsman but never had the chance to buy a canoe.
I just purchased a 15’ x27” Kevlar Sawyer canoe. 18” at bow and stern.
Can anyone identify the model? My size is a little different from what I have been able to mine from this and other sites.
It has a three way adjustable seat and a footrest.
It has very little to no rocker. It is a symmetrical boat.
I have dreams of fishing and other outings.
Is this the right vehicle?
I weight around 180lbs. My Lab, Jet weighs 100lbs
I will post pics.

I'm guessing the Autumn Mist. Hans Solo has some old catalog scans on Sawyer Solos It's a nice boat.

Thank you.
Maybe Hans Solo will opine.
In the meantime, I can read up on on this model.

Thank you

Congrats on your new canoe. I have an Autumn Mist. It should do fine for you.
I have paddled it with my 90# poodle, Rusty with no problems.
It has become my go to solo canoe, the others hang in the garage most of the
time.
It is considered a good solo for larger paddlers.

Carl
