The Huron 16 is ideal for cottagers and recreational canoeists who want a rugged canoe for paddling on calm bodies of water and small rivers but who don’t need the depth and capacity of the Prospecteur 16. The Huron 16 is pulled from the same mold as the Prospecteur 16 but we trim it down to 12.5”, as opposed to 14.5”. The lower profile reduces the weight and makes it easy to paddle in breezy conditions as either a solo or tandem.

Esquif - Pocket Canyon in T-Formex

Regular price $2,470.00 Save $-2,470.00

This compact, playful tandem canoe is ideally suited for short whitewater canoe trips that do not demand the length and cargo capacity of a larger (and heavier) tripping canoe. The Pocket Canyon also performs as well as many dedicated whitewater canoes used for day trips. This allows the canoe to serve double duty as both whitewater playboat, and technical river runner.

The Pocket Canyon’s flared hull maintains a dry ride even in large choppy waves and the rockered ends, with a progressive chine, provides a stable carving edge ideal for catching eddies. Fast, stable and manoeuverable, the Pocket Canyon has all the performance features you’ll need to tackle exciting day river features, whether out for the day or on brief wilderness get away.
