Old Town's patented Discovery 169 is definitely ready for the long
haul. More than anything, the craft defines CONFIDENCE: that you're
paddling with PolyLink3™, the hull by Old Town Canoe that
bounces back; that you've chosen a canoe ready for your own capabilities
on a local lake or in remote whitewater.
Dependable,
stable, maneuverable, and highly predictable when the waters are
not, the Discovery 169's deep-V entry compliments a high-volume
hull that works with - not against - heavy loads. Outstanding PolyLink3™
sandwich construction means a glossy surface to glance over rocks,
improved stiffness, and plenty of buoyancy.
What is PolyLink 3™?:
PolyLink3™ is a three-layer roto-molded process. This technology
allows Old Town to produce a stiffer craft than traditional single-layered
canoes and omits the need for a keel. Because the foam core provides
such exceptional stiffness, less material is needed in the hull
so weight is kept low. The core also provides built-in flotation
and insulation from cold and noise.
