 HURON 16 LITE

The Huron 16 is ideal for cottagers and recreational canoeists who want a rugged canoe for paddling on calm bodies of water and small rivers but who don’t need the depth and capacity of the Prospecteur 16.

 The Huron 16 is pulled from the same mold as the Prospecteur 16 but we trim it down to 12.5”, as opposed to 14.5”. The lower profile reduces the weight and makes it easy to paddle in breezy conditions as either a solo or tandem.

Why T-Formex Lite

At Esquif, we continually strive to show the paddling community that we are committed to constant innovation and a commitment to making their overall paddling experience better. While our canoes are designed for many uses, we understand not everyone requires the extreme durability of traditional T-Formex. T-Formex Lite is a NOT a cheapening of the material, rather a reoptimization of where the material is placed for each model. We also looked at every component to see where we could achieve weight reduction…. And WE DID IT! Paddlers fully grasp the difference between a 65 and a 55 lb canoe and all indications, they are excited about this development

Which Material is Right for Me?

When deciding which canoe to buy, it simply comes down to what type of trip you are planning, and what you value most. If you are looking for ultra durability and reliability for an extreme trip… you may want to choose T-Formex. If you want your boat to be a bit lighter on your portages, and loading and unloading, but still want a super tough canoe, then T-Formex Lite might be a better choice. As you can see by the chart…. Ultimately they are both high performance materials, each excelling in specific areas.
