Super Cruiser 18-6

H2O Canoe Company Super Cruiser 18-6 is inspired by designs popular in the 1970’s & 1980’s, used in extended trips up and down the Atlantic Coast line, down the Winnipeg, Colorado and Mississippi Rivers and more recently increased paddling of the Lake Superior Boundary Waters. A high capacity canoe with room for 3 or even 4 comfortably with gear is also easy to portage in all of H2O’s lightweight laminations. Super Cruiser is an asymmetrical hull shape running straight, with bow rocker and a shallow arched hull to get it turned. It is deeper than most at 14.5” and a flared bow sheds water effectively. Consider a sliding bow seat for trimming and a bench seat or even two for passengers.

Voyageur 17

H2O Canoe Company Voyageur is designed by Skip Izon, Grand Bend Ontario. This model began running rivers in 2000 for Raven Works under the name Nemesis and for years with Scott Canoe as the Missinaibi. With Skips blessing H2O Canoe Company has molded the original plug for composite construction in its sharpest and truest lines. We often refer to the Voyageur by the name Skip affectionately gave it early in the design stage – “Big Mama”. Proven and efficient in Royalex hulls which have softened lines, for ease of production. H2O’s Voyageur is the most accurate, efficient production of this exciting shape. Laminated in H2O Brute Force the Voyageur is ready for all circumstances and hazards moving water has to navigate. Created to excel in white water paddling, Skips’ goal was also for it to be competent in flat water. Voyageur is a quick turning canoe with aggressive bow and stern rocker, stable with a wide platform and dry due to depth and water shedding overhangs on the flared bow and stern. Voyageur is for competent paddlers with intermediate to advanced skills looking for the thrill of a lifetime every time out.
