Omschrijving
This ultimate expedition canoe hauls amazing loads, yet is easy to handle.
The Itasca is a tandem performance touring canoe that's built to carry expedition gear through wind and waves. This long, seaworthy hull tracks superbly, carries loads and glides far. It's the right boat for extreme exploring, coastal touring and week long adventures. The wide midsection of the Itsaca's 19-foot hull allows for big loads, yet makes paddling easy because the sides curve in at the gunwales to allow an easy reach to the water. The standard wood gunwales add strength and beauty to this unique design.
Flex-Core w/Kevlar® 61lbs.
Flex-core construction creates a more rugged canoe than our Ultra-light core, and is meant for general paddling on all but extreme waters. In our Flex-core constructions a structural-foam core is laminated into the hull, orienting the composite fibers carefully to distribute loads. We add an extra fabric layer to the whole hull. This adds a bit of weight but makes for a stronger, more rigid canoe. Side ribs are not needed because this layup distributes more material throughout the hull. The result is a tough canoe that is still fairly light weight. Using Kevlar® in our Flex-core layup adds a little weight, but saves some money. The extra layers of fabric and gel-coat finish makes these boats slightly more resistant to damage than our Ultra-Light canoes as well.
