For years, professional canoe guides and outfitters have relied on plastic or fiberglass for their fleets of boats. Each of them has its own merit. One is inexpensive, the other light. But none of them has the beautiful look.

At Grande Canoes, we are determined to make something stunning beautiful and at the same time strong, durable and light weight.

How can we achieve all of these? All of out canoes/kayaks are assembled from strips of top graded Canadian cedar (a very rare soft yet very strong timber) and then encapsulated in fiberglass with epoxy resin.

Features:
• Stunning beautiful clear graded cedar hull.
• Fiberglass adds important tensile strength and abrasion resistance to the wood.
• 100% western red cedar make our boats surprisingly light weight that one person can carry.
• Grande Canoes offer either a traditional open canoe or an enclosed kayak and these two will cover most of your paddling needs: recreational, touring, expeditions and performance.

Grande Canoes are completely handcrafted and it typically takes about 200-500 hours to build one. We still use the traditional method of constructions while integrating the highest quality of materials currently available. Strips of cedars are joined together by hand and then encapsulated in fiberglass bonded in place with epoxy resin then coated with marine vanish. This combination of fiberglass and epoxy is very strong and completely transparent so that the beauty of the wood will be protected for generations..

This kayak only weights about 45 lbs and can be put on top of your car or hand carry to the lake on day trips, family picnics, fishing or expeditions. Comes with 1 kayak paddle.

Also available in 17' and 10' Kid size (or display size)
