Boat Capabilities
Grabner Adventure SL
Not the right fit for you? Let’s find your perfect boat.
Adventure SL Features & Innovations
The extra long waterline, exceeding 16’ 4”, grants this canoe with excellent agility and easy paddling ability. The Adventure SL is the pinnacle of inflatable canoe performance with superior rigidity, stability and tracking. Even novice paddlers and families will find this canoe a pleasure to paddle.
Flat Bottom with a Hard Chine
The flat bottom and hard chine provides a lot of balance and offers directional stability not typical of inflatable boats. The ribbed floor creates channels of water. This effect replaces the need for a skeg.
Extremely Portable and Adventure Ready
Everything fits in just one bag! Grabner inflatable canoes take up a tiny amount of space once rolled up; throw it in your trunk or check it as luggage on your next traveling adventure.
Where Function & Form Meet
The curved bow and stern strakes create added buoyancy at the ends of the boat and also give it that classic canoe shape that we all know and love!
Children On Board?
The high gunwales are perfect for keeping kids and gear in and splashing waves and water out!
The interior is very spacious and can accommodate up to three adults with the addition of an optional third seat board.
Sweat-Free Propulsion
Easily mount the Torqeedo Ultralight 403 electric kayak motor on the strake mounted stern bracket! Arrive to your destination more rested, let technology do the paddling for you!

Please check out our recommendations below for how to properly outfit your new canoe to best suit your use case and needs.
The Right Paddle, Right Now
Everyone who canoes paddles their own way. It is sometimes an expensive game of trial and error to find the paddle that best fits you and your style. Grabner and Red Beard Sailing have a narrow and specific selection of paddles so that you can determine the right paddle for your needs, the first time.
Adventure SL Single Paddle Accessory Kit
$425This accessory kit rounds out your new canoe purchase. This kit provides a bag, pump and paddles so you can get on the water and start enjoying your new canoe right away!
Why Red Beard Recommends
This is a baseline accessory kit that will get you up and running as quickly as possible. The paddles are collapsible and everything can store in and on the backpack. The Adventure SL is a nearly 16’ long canoe, so moving it in a wheel bag is always easier on the back than carrying it.
Accessory Kit Includes:
1 Hand Air Pump, 2 Single Blade 3pc Canoe Paddles, 1 Backpack With Wheels, 1 16ft Boat Line, 1 Bottle of Boat Skin Conditioner
Adventure SL Combi-Paddle Accessory Kit
$365The Combi-Paddle accessory kit is a great starting point for learning what the Adventure SL has to offer. Including all of the necessary bits to get you hurtling down your favorite river or cruising across your favorite lake.
Why Red Beard Recommends
The Combi-paddle can be 2 single blade paddles for when you are out with a friend, but when you want to get upstream (or downstream) faster, this paddle can turn into a double-blade kayak paddle for more power. This is a kit that maximizes utility without breaking the bank.
Accessory Kit Includes:
1 Hand Air Pump, 1 Combi-Paddle, 1 Backpack With Wheels, 1 16ft Boat Line, 1 Bottle of Boat Skin Conditioner

$39OUTBOARD MOTORS
Let Technology Do the Paddling for You!
Kayaks are amazingly well designed boats. They are stable due to their low center of gravity and are very hydrodynamic allowing them to be propelled easily, even by small muscle groups such as shoulders and arms. It is time to take advantage of the kayak’s design and leave behind manual paddling! Electric motors are reliable, efficient and environmentally friendly. An electric motor will free your hands so you can dedicate them to a fishing rod for easier landing of the big catch, a pair of binoculars for easier bird watching, or any other activity that would require two hands. Give in to the dark side and embrace the way of electric propulsion!
Built in GPS
Did you know that Torqeedo motors have built in GPS and a screen that displays real time range, runtime and speed? It also allows you to easily troubleshoot with error code readouts. Don’t guess with other brand’s display free designs. Torqeedo makes it easy to own and use an electric outboard!
Torqeedo 403 AC
$2299This electric motor is light in weight and provides ample propulsion to get you to your destination (or back) with ease! The Grabner motor mount (add to your cart from the above accessory list) provides a perfect and custom fit of this little motor so you can mount and be on the water in mere minutes.
