Wenonah Fisherman Canoe In Royalex - Lightweight / Stable / Sportsman / Hunting

Offered for sale is an excellent example of this very stable and very versatile canoe. The Royalex version of the Wenonah Fisherman is one of the best sport and leisure canoes ever made. Specs - 14’ long / 38” wide / 57 lbs From the manufacturer: This short, wide canoe is stable enough to "set the screws" to a 6 pound largemouth bass exploding on your top water frog or lay back and relax as you watch a mid summer's night meteor shower. The slightly rockered bottom makes the Fisherman maneuverable, while the boat's shallow draft will get you into places other boats only desire to go. Keep it at camp or at the lake house.

Common uses:Hunting, Fishing, Leisure Review: Five stars Designed for families and sportsmen, the Fisherman is a stable platform for outdoor enjoyment. Short and wide, the Fisherman delivers easy turning and lots of initial stability. Its relatively flat bottom is very steady on fair waters, and its broad beam draws just inches. The easy control and shallow draught gives access to areas that would be difficult for other craft, even many other canoes. Being that it is a stable, small hull, the Fisherman is an ideal choice for camps or at a lake cabin where kids will often use it.

Since youngsters are light, they find it to be a fine paddling canoe that's also safe on waves due to its depth. Adults, however, like the Fisherman for wildlife viewing, star-gazing, and it is often used by one or two people for hunting or fishing. (If you go alone, a good way is to sit in the bow seat facing the stern. This puts you closer to the center of the canoe. It also may help to place tackle or other gear ahead of you to help trim out the boat.

Designed for stability not speed, the Fisherman still outperforms any other 14' canoe, and delivers this performance even though it has exceptional maneuvering. I paddled a fisherman along side others in longer canoes, and at normal paddling speeds I was surprised at how easily I kept up.
