Nova Craft Prospector 16 SP3
The 16 footer is the mid-sized model in the Prospector Range that follows the hugely successful popular Prospector shape, providing a popular all-round open boat. This mid-sized version is perfect for heavier/larger paddlers, tandem paddling or paddlers looking for faster canoe, with a higher carrying capacity. For those wanting a similar canoe with less carrying capacity but lighter and having more manoeuvrability then please look at our Prospector 15 Page.
Manufactured in the home of open boating- Canada, Novacraft have been building canoes for over 40 years and have a great reputation for their high quality workmanship and world-leading designs.
The Prospector hull shape has proven very successful over the decades due to its versatility on a variety of different waters. With forgiving lines and a moderate rocker, the Prospector is at home canoe camping on slow moving rivers as it is taking on lower grade white-water or day trips on lakes or canals.
Manufactured from Nova Crafts SP3 plastic, which is manufactured from oven roto-moulding three layers of super linear polyethylene. The outer skin and innermost layers are solid plastic and the middle layer sandwiched between is known as a foam-core. These canoes have proven extremely strong, and amongst the most durable available. Providing all-round canoeists with a great choice for moving water and general recreational use. The tough SP3 material canoes from Novacraft are hugely popular with centres and rental operators due to their durability, strong construction and low maintenance. There are also moulded plastic seat options available to give even more longevity.
Also available in Nova Craft's premium materials, including TuffStuff an extremely lightweight and strong option.
