The Prospector 17's classic symmetrical hull combines moderate rocker with generous depth, delivering the perfect balance of straight-line tracking and responsive maneuverability on lakes and calm rivers. This spacious design excels on extended expeditions where gear capacity matters, paddling especially well when loaded for multi-day adventures, though its generous dimensions also make it an excellent choice for paddlers wanting extra room and stability.
Built with durable basalt innegra composite construction, this canoe offers robust performance at an accessible price point while maintaining excellent strength-to-weight characteristics. The maintenance-free vinyl gunwales provide long-lasting durability and weather resistance, making this the ideal choice for paddlers who prioritize reliability and value without sacrificing quality craftsmanship.
