That's all. I've been waiting for a long time, and I'm happy it's finally here. Big thanks to the folks over at Hyside working hard to fulfill all those orders despite the delays.

Fun boats! I have a white one on order and already own the Max 12. Enjoy!

Very nice boat! Pro tip-Most people run their spare oars in the opposite directions so the blades are not capable of catching waves and taking you in a direction you might not want to go🙃

FWIW, when I worked on the Grand that was considered to be one of the biggest 'rookie' mistakes. I don't see how the direction your oar is facing makes any difference in changing out a broken oar, but to each their own. The other advantage of the handle up front IMO makes it easy to ship your oars inside the handles for parking or floating.

Nice! Looks like Black Bridge to maybe 2 Rivers for the first float or did you float down from 133?

You definitely fly a lot of flags but I like them all! I have a white max 12 and it is awesome. I probably put a bit more elbow grease in with my sponge at the takeout but other than that I don’t worry about it.

My forever boat came this week. Took 2 weeks shy of one year from order to delivery, but worth the wait.
Pro 15 with custom U3 urethane, relocated logos, and 10” chafes on the main tubes.

Boat name will go on the front where the logos were moved from, D rings will on the back where the logos were moved from.

I have a couple other little things to customize, but as I ordered it, I couldn’t be happier.

Good call on moving the logos, when I went to add D-rings in the back my logos were kind of in the way and made me install them a little further back than I would have liked.

Max 12 seems to be your ticket. I'm also a Colorado boater and run may of the rivers named. Have minimax and pro 14. if I were only planning on having one boat it would be the max 12.

That is what I have and use it as a paddle boat in class IV and also with a frame for multi day trips.

I also have a white hyside called El Gring0. Sorry for the funny character but apparently that is not politically correct. 🤷‍♂️ I’m only making fun of myself and the boat.
