Nova Craft - Prospector 14 - Solo - AmaridLite w/ removable dd yoke

A solo canoe that actually handles backcountry tripping weight without making you pay for it on the portage. That's the pitch for the Prospector 14' Solo, and it delivers.

Nova Craft scaled down their iconic Prospector design into a dedicated solo hull that keeps the capacity and confidence of the original while trimming the length and weight for one-person paddling. The symmetrical hull with moderate rocker gives you responsive handling when the route turns technical, without sacrificing the straight-line efficiency you want on long flatwater stretches between portages.

At 35 lbs in Aramid Lite, this is a canoe you'll actually want to carry. The shallow arch bottom provides a stable platform for loading up a week's worth of gear, and the wooden bench seat can be ordered hung flat or angled to suit your paddling style. Planning a multi-portage route? Add the removable yoke option and save your shoulders the trouble.

This is a canoe built for paddlers who go out alone, go deep into the backcountry, and want a hull that earns its place in the water and on the trail.
