Clipper Voyageur II 25.5' Kevlar Description
The Voyageur II is significantly different from our original design. It is more maneuverable with features such as increased rocker and a more shallow arch hull. It is also much more stable.
As with all of our Big Canoes, the Voyageur II was designed to be virtually maintenance free: there is no wood to be sand and varnished or oiled, and the inner gunnels are black anodized aluminum with a custom vinyl outer gunnel for longevity and durability. All of our Big Canoes have positive flotation, with a foam core in the hull, bow and stern float tanks as well as a block of 4.5” thick foam under each seat.
Large canoes are often referred to as WAR Canoes, particularly in articles written in the late 1900’s. Today we refer to them as ‘Big Canoes’.
