Prowler Problems

[richardlawrence]

Just had a phonecall from Bournemouth canoes, replacement Prowler is waiting there now for me. less than a week after taking my old one back.

 

Now that is good service!. I know they have 6 in stock now if anyone is thinking of making a purchase!

 

 

Sorted

 

Make sure you have a good look over the boat before you collect. Bulges, scupper holes etc.

 

Have fun.

Blimey, glad I bought Bic's, good build quality, if a little more expensive.

My new prowler has had to go back after just a week of fun in the sun.

 

I am Gutted. I landed on friday after a good session out off Portland Breakwater when i noticed a nast looking lump on the left hand side of the keel at the front of th eboat. It was about the size of two fists. I thought that the fact that it was pulling to the right all th etime was the fact that i was a crap paddler, but this wont have been helping at all

 

Took it back to Bournemouth Canoes and they were GREAT about it, phoned Johnsons and a replacement should be on its way, but i cant live without it!!!!!!, Anyone else had any probs with the prowler. I hope they dont send a replacement with the new graphics of the fish on the front, I dont like that one!!

 

I have bought a Prowler Elite recently, discovered a bulge and depression in the hull near the rear cargo area, Surfstore have kindly offered to exchange it(best customer service!!!) but have decided to go for a Big Game instead. Just wonder how many other problems there are but are not reported on here.

and about 3 ton heavier

28kilos? 3.5 kl heavier. The weight of a small Cod!

I can easily put it on the car roof on my own, and carry it on it's side, with the finger slots inside.

 

I would post a pic, but can't upload pics on here unless they are the size of a postage stamp.
