Nova Craft Prospector 18' When the trip calls for a full expedition load and you don't want to leave anything behind, the Prospector 18' is the canoe to reach for. This is Nova Craft's largest Prospector, built for paddlers who measure their trips in weeks rather than days and need a hull that can carry everything required to travel deep into the Canadian wilderness. The P18 paddles with the same responsive, confidence inspiring feel that has made the Prospector one of the most trusted canoe designs in this country, which is impressive given how much it can carry. The longer waterline straightens out the tracking compared to shorter Prospectors, making it a more efficient choice for covering big water and open lakes. It fits a large family comfortably in one boat, and for the serious expedition paddler, the cargo volume is simply in a class of its own. *Weights are based on year long production averages and may vary. *Adding options to your canoe will add to its overall weight. Trim Systems Standard aluminum gunwales are aircraft grade, anodized, and essentially maintenance free. They're tough, lightweight, and built to last well beyond a lifetime of paddling.

Prefer the traditional look and feel of wood?
