MANUFACTURER’S COMMENTS


A smaller tripping canoe for a couple of weeks and/or moderate size paddlers. The PakCanoe 165 is also an excellent expedition solo canoe.


Durable, nimble and fast. The Echo cruises with an ease reminiscent of longer canoes. Ideal for day tours and short trips. Only 48 lbs in Kevlar.


An incredibly stable and reasonably fast hull. Excellent for day use or tripping.


Clear white cedar ribs and planks. Clear black cherry and white ash trim. The seats are hand-caned and the highest quality marine varnish with UV inhibi- tors is used. An elegant canoe.


One of our most versatile canoes, it allows beginners to feel like they have been paddling for years. It is a very popular small recreational canoe for the family. Also in Kevlar.


Design based on the Chesnut Ogilvy. Flat bottom, classic tumblehome. Perfect for cottage or solo fl atwater tripping. Ash trim, seats and yoke. Stainless steel hardware.


Fantastic beginner or family canoe. Designed to be stable and easy to paddle. A key feature are the seats, which are removable for light loading and moveable from a solo to tandem position.


Available in fi breglass and Kevlar-glass-epoxy construction with diff erent yokes and removable thwart/yoke bracket options.
