Canoes in Ely, MN are waiting for you! Kevlar canoes made differently than the status quo you'll find in every Wenonah, Mad River, Bell, Sawyer, Novacraft, Swift, Langford, Clipper, et al. Souris River Canoes are actual kevlar canoes that rival Royalex in durability for flatwater Boundary Waters paddling. But that's the small part - the big part is the way Souris River Canoes handle on the water. Instead of being the status quo in most other kevlar canoes which is tippy, hard to turn and control on the water, shortsided in freeboard, and rather fragile on the rocks, Souris River Canoes are stable, easy to control on the water, have good freeboard and can survive a meeting with rocks. When the water gets choppy, a Souris River can keep you moving when the other canoes sit in the bay and wait.
Offering a unique Flexible Rib System teamed up with flexible, heat-cured epoxy resin and great general purpose hull designs, Souris River Canoes (particularly the Quetico series) will do a great job for the paddler seeking to retire that heavy old aluminum or plastic canoe.
