Canoe/kayak Boats For Sale

People often confuse Canoes and Kayaks. The essential difference is that Canoes are propelled through the water using a single paddle, while Kayaks have the speed advantage because they use a paddle with two blades.

Canoes come in various shapes and sizes, with specific designs for different activities. Fiberglass is the most economical material for constructing canoes, but alternatives like Kevlar and Duraflex Kevlar are used for more expensive types of canoes.

Tripping Canoes are long and narrow, providing good directional stability and enough space to stow camping gear. The longer canoes can accommodate two or more paddlers. Tripping canoes are designed for longer trips and are 15 to 20 feet long.

Canoes following traditional designs (War canoes) can accommodate as many as 18 paddlers plus space for guests and gear. Similar in size, the Dragon Boats of China carry 22 team members. Recreational Canoes are great for day trips on sheltered waters. They are stable enough for easy paddling and can be used for exploring lakes and rivers. In addition, their minimal draft allows them to explore the shallows easily.

Sporting canoes are designed for fishing or hunting. Therefore, they have a wider beam and tend to be more flat-bottomed, providing a stable platform for standing up in the canoe.
