Nova Craft Prospector 16 TuffStuff
The Nova Craft Prospector 16 is the most popular size of Prospector in the range, and this version is supplied in either TuffStuff or TuffStuff Expedition laminates. These lightweight materials offer a great combination of strength and weight, with TuffStuff being the more popular choice. The TuffStuff Expedition version has extra material to provide a heavier-duty, stiffer Prospector with greater impact resistance.
As with all 16ft Prospectors, this can be paddled by one person, or in tandem and can easily cope with overnight expedition kit for those wanting to complete multi-day trips. If the canoe is mainly going to be paddled by one person, and without being fully loaded up, then the Prospector 15 is even lighter, more manoeuvrable, and easier to handle solo. If you require a more robust canoe then the Nova Craft Prospector 16 is available in Nova Craft's tough and durable SP3 Material, providing all-round paddlers with the perfect choice for moving water, tackling small rapids and high-use environments (eg Outdoor Centres).
The Prospector hull shape has proven so successful over the years due to its versatility on a variety of different water types. With forgiving lines and a moderate rocker, the Prospector is at home with camping trips down slow-moving rivers as it is for day paddles on local canals, lochs or lakes.
