Canoe Tree Sizzlin’ Seventeeners


Mad River REFLECTION 17 $1,180 US • madrivercanoe.com LENGTH: 17’4”WIDTH: 33”


HULL MATERIAL: Royalex WEIGHT: 66 – 69 lbs


Designer Comments: The Reflection 17 is a versa- tile 17’ canoe. The goal was to create a canoe that was stimulating and functional at the same time and would appeal to the adventuresome tripper as well as the young family. It offers a healthy dose of speed, reassuring stability and generous capac- ity without sacrificing manoeuvrability. Choice of wood, aluminum or IQ system gunwales. Price may increase to $1,530 US depending on gunwales.


Old Town KORU


$2,999 US • oldtowncanoe.com LENGTH: 17’5”WIDTH: 33.8”


HULL MATERIAL: Carbon fibre WEIGHT: 62 lbs


Designer Comments: Koru is a native term referring to renewal, and a fitting name for our technologically advanced composite canoe. We carefully adapted the Algonquin and Ojibway hunting canoe designs to modern paddling and found just the right mate- rial and lay-up to give you lightweight durability, without sacrificing style and glide. By adding tumblehome and extending the waterline slightly with minimum rocker, the Koru provides you with a swift, efficient and comfortable paddling experience.


Red River Canoe and Paddle TIMBER CRUISER $3,800–$4,500 Cdn redrivercanoe.ca


LENGTH: 17’6”WIDTH: 39”


HULL: Cedar and canvas WEIGHT: 77 lbs


Designer Comments: This reproduction of the Kildonan Canoe Company’s Timber Cruiser model is a large-volume, easy-pad- dling tripping canoe. The original has proven itself on many northern trips and this canoe was specially commissioned to keep the model available into the future. Fine entry lines and moder- ate maximum waterline make for a manageable and surprisingly quick cargo hauler.
