pack canoes

​These versatile, light-weight solo canoes originated in the Adirondacks and are perfectly suited to exploring the area. Pack Canoes are designed to be easily portable, highly maneuverable  and comfortable to paddle.  The low seat position provides reassuring stability and the thoughtful hull designs balance ease of turning with good straight-line performance.  Traditionally paddled with a double blade, these wonderful boats are equally at home in narrow creeks and rivers, small ponds and on open lakes. 
​
When it comes to getting to or from the water or traversing between waterways during your paddling trip, this is where their light-weight construction comes into its own.  Lifting on or off the car is a breeze and for portage they are light enough to just be carried on the shoulder or with a detachable yoke, if you prefer.
