Wenonah Prospector 16

Wenonah Prospector 16 T-Formex

The original Prospector was a river-running boat known as the work horse of the North. This proven down river hull is our version of the classic design, and the closest thing to the original that money can buy. It's a stable hull for rivers and streams - with ample rocker it's quick to turn. Because of the symmetrical shape of the hull, a solo paddler loaded with gear could make good progress by turning around in the bow seat and paddling it backward.

"A lot of our customers ask me why of all the open canoes available on the market today, I choose to paddle the Wenonah Prospector 16. The answer is simple - it's just such a fantastically good boat. Hull design is a black art, and what Wenonah have done here is manage to make an open canoe which is both highly manoeuvrable and fast at the same time. For me it's the perfect all rounder. It's stable on moving water and responds to edging excellently. Being 16', it's a really practical boat that can be used for both solo and tandem paddling, with enough space for a kneeling thwart or third seat when catering for younger members of my family. Crucially, being made of Royalex, it is light enough for my wife and me to lift onto the roof of our car with ease. I can thoroughly recommend it."
