H2O Canoe Company Peterborough 16
The Peterborough 16 is the sleekest member of H2O's Heritage Series of symmetrical canoes that includes the Canadian 16/6 and Canadian 15.
H2O's Peterborough has razor sharp entry and exit lines that slice through the water efficiently. Combine its design with the very narrow 31" beam, and you have a very quick canoe that's perfect for small, experienced paddlers. It's skinny frame also makes it perfect paddling with a kayak paddle for those transitioning from one to the other.
Tumblehome sides, the narrow beam, and slight rocker make the Peterborough 16 suitable for both tandem and solo paddling. Solo paddlers are delighted at the ability to heel this canoe over, while tandem paddlers are joyed at its exceptional speed and glide.
"H2O's Peterborough 16 is one of a very few keeled canoes made today with tumblehome sides, which makes it a dream for solo paddling and more precise maneuvers."
