How to Search Frontenac Outfitters Web Site
Recreational Canoes are grouped together below. Each canoe offers a precise Frontenac Outfitters Review, indepth Boat Statistics, Suggested Canadian Retail Prices and Our Own Unique Skills Rating System.
Recreational Canoes Brief History
Recreational Canoes are typically 14 to 16 feet in length, are 36 inches wide and have flatter bottoms to maximize initial stability. These boats often incorporate a keel to aid tracking (the ability to go straight) and to provide greater initial stability for less skilled paddlers. Recreational canoes purposely sacrifice a degree of over all efficiency for an added level of user-friendliness and predictability. These canoes satisfy a wide range of functions from casual outings, family, kids and cottage, to short trips in calm protected waters. Weights range in Fibreglass from 58 to 69 lbs and Kevlar from 39 to 55 lbs depending on the materials and manufacturing processes used.
Canadian 2013 Suggested Prices
Quality fibreglass canoes begin around $1150 and go up to about $1700 for lighter weight Infused-technology. Kevlar prices vary widely from $1750 to over $3000 depending on the materials and resins used, trim choices, available options, weights and manufacturing processes used.
HINT:
