H2O Canadian 16'6" Brute Force Review
The H2O Canoe Company Canadian 16/6 Canoe is a close replica of an early settler canoe.
The essence and versatility of a traditional canoe is captured with a symmetrical style hull and re-curved ends made famous by First Nations Peoples.
To reduce wind resistance and maximize efficiency, a slightly longer length and narrower beam are carefully combined with sharp entry and exit lines and a lower sheer. The Canadian has a shallow arch hull design and shoe keel to provide a rare blend of performance and stability sought by many canoe builders – but seldom achieved.
The handy shoe keel (half keel) design aids tracking, protects against grounding, while sacrificing little in the way of maneuverability.The H20 Canadian 16/6 is a stable, well-mannered and predictable craft, which successfully blends efficiency and a user-friendly nature, while retaining a distinctly traditional Canadian Heritage Canoe style appearance.
Unlike it's shorter siblings the Pathfinder 16 and Bob Special 15, the Canadian 16/6 is a fast, straight paddling canoe making it a perfect choice for tripping and recreational paddling alike!
"Fast and efficient, while still retaining a high degree of initial stability. Before purchasing any flat-water canoe, we suggest you checkout the H2O Canoe Company Canadian 16/6 Canoe… After one test paddle, our team gives it 2 thumbs up!"
