Old Town Charles River 163 Royalex Canoe

The traditional lines of the Old Town Charles River 163 Canoe Royalex understate its high performance hull design with paddler-friendly features. Royalex® hull provides exceptional abrasion resistance and springs back from impacts. Royalex also makes a much lighter weight hull than standard polyethylene while offering excellent strength and toughness. Traditional recurved bow and stern and strong keel keep this canoe on track; tumblehome above the waterline narrows the beam for easier paddling. Center yoke thwart offers manageable solo portaging while polyethylene decks with moulded handles allow easy 2-person carrying. Durable ash-framed webbing seats are comfortable and long-lasting; stout ash thwarts and vinyl wrapped gunwales enhance rigidity. Ample cargo area for gear or extra passengers; great for fishing, day paddles, nature watching and weekend trips. Straight-on speed, handling ease and capacity make this an all-around performance canoe.
