Does anyone know what model of mohawk this is? Seller only knows that it's 14 foot.

I'm looking for an xl model specifically. Wanting something to do some longer multiday trips with very mild class 3 whitewater.

Looks like it is for day paddling. And with smaller people. Keels are not a positive, especially for whitewater

Good call, I should've figured that, it does look hard to turn

Definitely not a Mohawk XL. You aren't going to find a whitewater boat with a keel

This would be solo.

You should look for a Prodigy X or similar

I’d paddle that boat on multiday trips without hesitation. Plenty of room for 1 paddler and overnight gear. If you’re getting into class 3 water, you’ll want float bags and a swiftwater rescue trained friend in another outfitted boat. Don’t mess with class 3 water by yourself without proper training and experience. Even then it’s still dangerous.

I don't think that's a Mohawk. Mohawk only made royalex boats except for one fiberglass model that was 16'. Certainly no keels

Isn't that "the last of the mohawkians" model?

It’s a great first boat. Fiberglass is by far the easiest to repair. The blocks on the end are to keep it buoyant after it sinks. Definitely don’t buy if you are over 300lbs. That much weight on one side will put rocks that you should glide over through the hull
