Our most popular boat by shear rental numbers, the 16ft Penobscot is a reliable workhorse. I would like to note that it is very heavy, and I do not recommend trying to portage this boat unless you have a portage cart. This canoe is stable and tracks well, and is perfect for an afternoon on the lake or river.
This canoe has 2 seats; only one additional participant over 90lbs OR up to two small children, each weighing less than 90lbs may sit on the floor of the canoe (in the middle).
Your rental will include:
- 2 Adult PFDs (plus pfd's for your children, should you need them)
- 2 Paddles (plus small children seats and paddles, should you need them)
- 1 Boater Safety Kit (500mL cloth bailer, whistle, 50'/15m buoyant heaving line)
- 1 Lake Map
Features:
- Nylon web seats (squeaky)
- Vinyl gunwales
- Comfortable carrying handles
- Ash thwart and yoke (not comfortable)
- Shallow arch hull
- Straight sides
- Minimum rocker
