This, or That?

Green. The first canoe I ever rowed was a green, wood & canvass antiquity.

Inboard or Outboard?
 
Kevlar - 'cos I have never heard of the other one :)

Yeah, Royalex is a composite laminate material that is comprised of vinyl outer layers that are heat bonded to an ABS foam core. It is a highly durable and relatively light weight material (much lighter than fiberglass, polyethylene, and even aluminum), and is especially suited for whitewater canoeing. It is also an affordable material and is not terribly more expensive than fiberglass and aluminum. The only real downsides are that they are susceptible to shrinkage and a condition called "cold cracking" in rapidly fluctuating or frigid conditions. However, there is a special gunwale oil that can be applied to the canoe to prevent this from happening if you expect these conditions. Overall, they make for extremely durable canoes that last quite a long time. :)

hunting: deer or moose?

Deer I suppose.

Fishing from a boat in a secluded lake, or hiking to a secluded river to do some bank fishing?
