The photos are of the actual boat Product Description The Sassafras 16 is a traditional clinker-style tandem canoe built using modern methods to be very light, making it easy to paddle and to carry. She has a good initial stability and great secondary stability. Her hull has a slight rocker – not for manoeuvring in whitewater, but rather to reduce wetted surface area – making her almost effortless to paddle.

She has a smooth or ‘well dampened’ feel that is characteristic of good wooden canoes. Like many traditional canoes, the Sassafras 16 is symmetrical, bow and stern. This allows a solo paddler to sit facing ‘backwards’ on the forward seat for better trim. The Sassafras 16's hull is 6 mm okoume with fibreglass cloth on the lower strakes, inside and out. Watertight buoyancy chambers are fitted at the bow and stern.
