Canoes and Classic Boats

GRP Prospector

The GRP Prospector is a 16' open Canadian canoe with a 3' beam.  It has a classic streamline shape with narrow bow and stern sweeping out to the centre of the boat.  The design has a rounded hull and a slight rocker providing good manoeuvrability.  Prospectors are a fine combination of design factors for the provision of speed, handling and visual appeal.

The hull is constructed in GRP with the gunnels, seats, decks and buoyancy chambers in solid timber.  Depending on preference, seats may be either solid wood, cane or woven webbing.

The boat comes with tender lines and carry lines.

Storage ports can be added in the buoyancy chambers if desired.

The 'Erne Tourer' also handles well paddled solo.

GRP Erne Tourer

The GRP Erne Tourer is a 16' open Canadian canoe with a 3'3" beam.  It has a broad hull design traditionally associated with carrying trade goods.  This makes for a stable boat ideal for use as a camping/ touring boat and for canoeing as a family.  The boat can accommodate two adults and two children.

The Erne's size and shape make it an ideal boat for canoe based angling.

The design has a flattened hull and minimal rocker providing excellent stability and good tracking characteristics, whilst the absence of a keel assists in maintaining good manoeuvrability.  The bow and stern profile is cut low to minimise the effect of wind.  The Erne Tourer is an excellent combination of design factors for those interested in flat water canoeing in a boat that has ample room and smooth handling.

The hull is constructed in GRP with the gunnels, seats, decks and buoyancy chambers in solid timber.  Depending on preference, seats may be either solid wood, cane or woven webbing.
