The Esquif Rangeley 17 Canoe is a powerful, high-capacity square-stern canoe built for serious fishing, hunting and big-water travel.

Inspired by traditional Rangeley working canoes, this 17-foot design combines exceptional stability with the durability of modern T-Formex construction. Its impressive 51-inch beam creates a broad, confidence-inspiring platform for casting, hauling gear and spending long days on open water.

The square stern allows the Rangeley 17 to be powered by an outboard motor up to 8 HP, making it well suited to covering larger lakes, reaching remote fishing spots and transporting equipment to hunting camps. It can also be rowed efficiently from the centre position, giving you added versatility when quieter travel is preferred.

Despite its substantial size and capacity, T-Formex construction helps keep weight lower than many traditional boats of this style while delivering the strength and rigidity required for demanding use.

With webbed seats, durable vinyl gunwales and plenty of room for people and equipment, the Esquif Rangeley 17 is an excellent choice for anglers, hunters, camps and paddlers who need a stable, motor-capable canoe for rougher water and gear-heavy adventures.

Pricing & Pickup

At Wilderness Supply, we work hard to keep canoe pricing fair and predictable. Canoe prices are either listed at the manufacturer’s MSRP or include a small portion of the freight cost to one of our retail locations, with the rest covered by us. That means in-stock canoes and boats pre-ordered on our regular bulk shipments don’t incur surprise shipping fees.

Canoes ordered outside our bulk shipment windows may incur additional freight charges to our retail store locations. We will always discuss and confirm that with you in advance.

Our goal is simple: make it easy to get the right boat, at a fair price, with no guesswork and no last-minute surprises.
