Canadian Canoe. Our 16ft boats are highly maneuverable can be paddled solo or by 2 / 3 persons. On stillwater or easy grade white water they are capable of carrying large loads, which makes them ideal for journeying and camping trips. Two canoes can be rafted together (very simply) to make a very stable craft ideal for young children or the unsure which can be paddled or sailed

Sea Kayaking These long sleek boats are based on Inuit kayaks that are used in the seas around Greenland and the Arctic Circle. They move quickly through the water and are excellent for long journeys and expeditions. You can load the watertight compartments with all your kit for a weeks expedition, or just throw in a packed lunch to explore the lakes and lochs on a daily basis. They are a great way to explore the larger lakes, lochs and sea lochs.
