Outside Features & Innovations

The Outside is a beast of a canoe that really shines when the going gets tough. This 2-person white water raft is durable enough to last at least a decade or two of hard use. Simple to patch and hard to puncture makes for a confidence-inspiring boat that can tackle lakes, rivers, oceans and even the occasional (or frequent) waterfall!

Outside Canue Profile Image

Highly Maneuverable

The short waterline of the Outside makes this boat incredibly responsive to direction changes. The upturned bow and stern keep splashes out of the boat and prevent paddlers from getting caught in dangerous strainers.

Outside Canoe Side Tubes Image

Rigid Side Tubes

The rigid side tubes capped off with a bow-to-stern grommet rail allow paddlers to easily trim their weight in the boat for optimal performance. Put a seat anywhere you deem necessary and even add additional boards for extra passengers or for shifting weight on the fly.

Comfort and Safety Image

Comfort and Safety

Inclined seat boards and a thin interior beam makes for comfortable kneeling. Paddlers are able to make proper hip contact with the boat providing for safe and secure boat control. Optional thigh belts can help keep paddlers tighter to the boat for safer passages.

In the event of a capsize the seat boards fold up and allow paddlers to exit the boat with ease. This feature makes sure you aren’t sacrificing comfort for safety!

Ready to Bail Image

Ready to Bail

In white water, the self-bailer evacuates any water that finds its way into the boat. You can roll it up and seal it when sitting still or in calm waters to prevent any unwanted water ingress.
