Nova Craft Bob Special 15'
Versatile is the one word that sums up this open boat. Incredibly lightweight yet also robust and durable due to it being constructed from Novacrafts TuffStuff composite material.
The hull shape on the Bob Special has been designed for great stability, but also has minimal rocker with a long waterline length. Meaning it tracks well in a straight line on flat water, and is faster and more efficient over distance than most other 15 foot canoes.
The Bob Special is more than capable of being paddled solo, or tandem on a variety of inland waterways from Welsh canals, to the English lakes or the classic rivers of Scotland.
This 15 foot canoe is more than capable of carrying two people and enough kit for overnight camping trips or day touring. But for those looking at carrying lots of kit for multiday tandem trips a 16 foot canoe would provide extra carrying capacity.
In summary, the Bob Special 15 is very popular with beginner and intermediate canoeists due to its stability and light weight. Suitable for use on slow-moving rivers and inland lakes, canals and sheltered estuaries.
