In Response To: Strip: Info about the Panache (Michel Lafrance)

Hello!
I built the Panache in year 2000 and has paddled her quite a lot since then.
Although I gifted her to my son I have an option to borrow her when I want.
She is my favourite kayak. Steady, welltracking, plenty of room and very goodlooking. A real KAYAK!
I see no reason why not to build a Panache and I think you will like her too.
The picture is on the Panache with a big paddler. It was his first paddling with a woodstripkayak and he loved it and her. He was a very very good slalomkayakist some years ago, swedish champion several times, and I think he is a very demanding paddler. If he says that a kayak is exellent, it is.

Last winter I helped two other builders to build Panache´s. They are very satisfied.
