One Tree Canoe Company
Classic Australian Made Canoes
Sprite 11
A 11.5 foot canoe made in the style of the popular pack boats in America, it has curved ends and plenty of tumble-home to ensure it paddles easily solo.
This canoe is designed to be paddled as a solo boat with either a canoe or kayak paddle. It is stable, lightweight and very manoeuvrable and would make a great canoe for fishing from or just exploring inland rivers and lakes.
We designed this canoe specifically for people looking for a lighter alternative to sit on top kayaks.
Specifications:
Length: 3.5m, Beam: 80cm, Capacity: 200kg, Seating 1 only
Weight: 20kg standard layup, 16kg lightweight layup
11ft 6in sprite looks fantistic, should convert into a great fishing outfit. I like it, for one.
Thanks Chris
Went pretty well at Wivenhoe Classic this year
Chris, I absolutely love mine and I fish out of it every weekend
peter, it looked so good, i am glad it preforms as well as it looks.
Hi – what materias are used in the standard and lightweight boats?
I’m in sydnet and we have to deal with shorelines that may just be sandstone platforms, wonder how the hull may hold up to that?
thx
Hi Mathew, both laminates use fibreglass with polyester resin for the standard and vinylester resin for lightweight. We use our boats on the mid Brisbane river and regularly slide over submerged objects and down gravelly races. They stand up very well to that and I would think to your conditions as well
