Enigma Canoes Prospector 16


At sixteen feet in length, the Enigma Prospector follows the hugely successful Prospector Canadian canoe design, providing a well-rounded general purpose canoe. The Prospector hull has proven very successful over the decades, due to its versatility on a variety of different water types. With forgiving lines and a moderate rocker, the Prospector is at home canoe camping on slow moving rivers as it is taking on low grade white-water or day trips on lakes or canals.


This mid-sized (16ft) version is great for couples tandem paddling or solo canoeists looking for a general-purpose canoe, with a high carrying capacity. The 16ft Enigma Canoes Prospector is favoured by many outdoor centres and hire centres throughout the UK due to its strength, reliability and all-round nature. For those wanting a similar canoe with less carrying capacity but lighter and having a touch more manoeuvrability then please look at our Prospector 15 Page.


Manufactured locally to us here at Manchester Canoes, the Enigma Prospector 16 is truly a UK manufactured and assembled canoe, constructed from high quality materials to provide paddlers with a robust and durable canoe for waterborne adventures throughout the UK.
