Why choose a custom-made canoe?

A custom build lets you discuss your paddling style, body dimensions, experience and intended use with the maker. Design, weight, balance, materials and appearance can then be considered together.

Can I enquire if I’m new to canoeing?

Absolutely. Tell us about your experience and the waterways you would like to explore. We can discuss the design considerations relevant to your plans and help you understand the options.

How much does a custom canoe cost?

Pricing depends on the agreed design, materials and specifications. Get in touch with your ideas so we can discuss options and provide a quote for your proposed build.
