Our take on the classic open canoe, the Oryx is narrower and longer than the raft inspired Forager and features two specialized ergonomic seats that allow the paddlers to sit upright. The high seating position is ideal for all day seating comfort, putting in miles, and relaxing while fishing or wildlife watching. The Oryx is also our fastest flatwater boat hull. Experienced whitewater canoeists will be able to run up to Class II+ whitewater with ease in the Oryx, but the Forager is a better multi-person whitewater packraft.<\/p>\n
Due to the seating configuration, the Oryx is best paddled with a canoe style paddle. However, it can be paddled by a single stern paddler with a kayak paddle so that the front paddler can fish, take pictures, make lunch, etc. We recommend the Aquabound Shred-Apart 240cm paddle with the Oryx.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Our innovative Cargo Fly internal storage system comes standard on the Gnarwhal.\u00a0<\/strong>The Cargo Fly features an airtight zipper installed in the stern of the boat to allow you to store your gear inside the tubes. The system provides drier and more secure gear storage and improved paddling performance due to a lower center of gravity.<\/p>\n Internal Dry Bags may be purchased separately and are designed to work with the Cargo Fly system.\u00a0<\/strong>The bags clip in place along each side of the tubes with a side release buckle and allow for better organization and weight balance than placing the contents of your pack loose inside the Cargo Fly. They also act as additional balanced air chambers to make it easier to get to shore in the event of a puncture.<\/p>\n *Weight includes all components except inflation bag, repair kit, and internal dry bags for Cargo Fly. Our take on the classic open canoe, the Oryx provides all day seating comfort and easy paddling for two. Perfect for traversing lakes and flatwater river systems like the Boundary Waters and the Yukon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3298,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[78,80],"product_tag":[],"yst_prominent_words":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"yoast_head":"\nSpecifications<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\n**Packed size is a reference measurement based on folding each lengthwise edge of the boat to the center and rolling from the bow. There are many other methods of rolling and folding the boats that will result in a different packed size that may be more or less efficient for packing depending on the situation.
\n***Max Capacity is the maximum total weight (paddlers and cargo) that the boat can reasonably carry in flatwater under ideal conditions. Actual capacity for any given trip will vary widely based on the paddler\u2019s skill and water conditions. Please review our weight carrying capacity guide for further details.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
