The Discovery 169 is a good solid canoe with a mix of good handling characteristics and durability, along with carrying capacity to make it a good choice for camping trips. I've had mine many years and abused it a good bit and expect to get several more years of use. It is stored outside, so the sun is starting to impact the plastic, but it has handled many rocks and gravel with full loads and no significant damage. The only downside is that it is fairly heavy, but that's the trade off for the durability of a workhorse camping canoe which can handle rapids fairly well.
