    Frame

    Pouch carefully crafts the frame for the Long Touring Single E68 of wood. The design balances

    • Strength
      This boat will be with you through thick and thin for many years.
    • Resilience
      The frame absorbs punishment with ease.
    • Flexibility
      Just the right degree of overall flexibility in an otherwise stiff hull contributes to the boats seaworthiness and your safety.
    • Light Weight
      You carry less, the boat carries more.
    • Ease of Maintenance
      The highly developed factory finish on all wooden components ensures that your time will be spent paddling - unless you like to varnish.

    • High Corrosion Resistance

    • Functionality
      Good design and DEPLOYMENT of high quality fittings ensure ease of assembly and secure connections.

    Skin

    Pouch builds the skin for the Long Touring Single E68 of synthetic materials throughout. Construction comprises

    • Strength
      Both hull and deck material have enourmous puncture resistance.
    • Durability
      The BRETEX deck, as well as the PVC and the Hypalon hulls are completely rot proof.
    • Abrasion Resistance
      The boat absorbs punishment with ease.
    • Flexibility
      The skin "gives" under impact. This prevents damage and contributes to "seaworthiness".
    • Ease of Maintenance
      Deck and the hull materials are practically maintenance free. You are free to paddle.
