Overview

Arrow

Looking for a large solo canoe that can haul a load? A solo that will double as a tandem? Or maybe your into freestyle canoeing. The Deep Creek Solo will fit the ticket. We take our Deep Creek hull, pull in the gunwales 2” and outfit it with a web seat just behind center. It makes a great hunting or fishing canoe with lots of room for the dog. Wondering how you will paddle that deer out you bagged? Take the Deep Creek Solo and there will be no problem.

Glass Skin
A clear layer of s-gass on the outside to make a tougher skin and protect the laminate. Adds strength but also adds weight
Rock Guard
An extra layer of Kevlar under the foam core on the bottom. This will greatly increase the durability of the bottom when scraping over rocks, gravel bars and logs.
Expedition
One full extra layer of Kevlar. Adds a lot of stiffness and durability to the canoe. Great for extended wilderness expeditions as well as mild whitewater. This layup has been tested in rental canoes in the Boundary Waters with great success.
Whitewater
Extra layers of Kevlar are added with an s glass skin to build a very durable canoe capable of using on class 2 and 3 whitewater.
