The Mad River Explorer 16 KX Ultralite canoe connects every paddle stroke to the waters around it with exquisite craftsmanship and unparalleled good looks.
- This special canoe is unusually light and responsive: layers of Kevlar® fabric encapsulate a foam core which extends up the hull in multiple ribs
- Resin impregnates all layers except the foam core, reducing overall weight
- Double layers of fabric along the keel enhances durability
- Symmetrical, shallow-V hull offers excellent tracking and superior performance in rough water
- Moderately rockered hull offers a great balance between maneuverability and speed
- Lightweight aluminum gunwales attach to hull via rivets and add responsive stiffness to the hull
- Features stained and contoured cane seats and a sculpted portage yoke
- The Mad River Explorer 16 KX Ultralite canoe features walnut carry handles that are shaped to fit comfortably in your hands
Made in USA.
