Adirondack

This 12’ solo canoe is Esquif’s top selling boat for many reasons: It’s lightweight (only 42lbs) makes it easy to portgage, launch and load on your car. Adirondack’s 32” beam gives you good stability while still providing a nice padding station for both single blade and double blade paddlers. Durable T-formex can take a beating on water or land. Lastly, the 12’ length gets you close to the fish even in small ponds & creeks, plus, makes the Adirondack easy to store and easy to throw in the back of your pick-up truck or SUV.

Mallard

The square stern Mallard is short enough to fit into the bed of a truck (12’4”), but spacious enough to hold two sportsman and gear (39” beam).  It can be run with either a small electric or gas motor (2.5hp max) or paddled like a traditional double ended canoe. Now you can travel farther back from the launch to access more secret hunting and fishing spots that most boats can not reach or just enjoy a quiet day on the water with friends and pets. Made of T-Formax material the Mallard is lightweight and easily cartopped (59 pounds) and durable enough for many years on the water.  

Camo $2,299

Cargo 15

Anglers, hunters and general recreational marine enthusiasts meet the Cargo 17s littlesquare stern brother. 20 pounds lighter (65 lbs.), the Cargo 15 is easier to car top and portage. This 15-foot square stern features one of the widest beams in its category (over 40 inches) giving it maximum stability and is perfect for carrying hunting dogs, harvesting game, or stand-up poling and sight fishing. With 16 inches of depth midship, proud ends and a shallow arched hull the 15 will run dry in open water lakes and coastal inshore estuaries.

Prospecteur 16

T-Formex

The ultimate material for rugged canoes. T-Formex is a high tech ABS plastic laminate with a foam core. It is specially designed for products that require structural memory and resistance to abrasion and impacts. The material is inherently buoyant and lightweight. These characteristics make it the best choice for canoes.

T-Formex is durable and reliable whether wilderness tripping, fishing or just spending a day at the lake. It will give you confidence when pulling your boat up on shore, should you hit a rock or in the unlikely event your boat takes a tumble while loading onto your vehicle.
