Nova Craft Prospector 14 Solo - Special Edition Clear Tuff Stuff

The Prospector 14' Solo is already one of Nova Craft's most capable backcountry solo canoes. This Special Edition Clear TuffStuff version adds something genuinely different: a translucent hull that lets you see the composite construction beneath the surface, and looks unlike anything else on the water.

Everything that makes the standard P14 Solo worth paddling is here. The symmetrical hull with moderate rocker gives you responsive handling when the route gets interesting, and the shallow arch bottom provides a stable, efficient platform for solo flatwater travel. It carries a legitimate tripping load despite its compact 14-foot length, and at 45 lbs in TuffStuff it's a canoe you'll actually want to carry across a portage. The wooden bench seat can be ordered hung flat or angled, and the removable yoke option is worth adding if multi-portage routes are part of your plans.

The Clear TuffStuff layup is the same high-performance basalt and Innegra fibre construction as the standard TuffStuff, with Nova Craft's high-impact vinylester resin system giving it the backcountry toughness the Prospector name demands.
