The Esquif Prospecteur Sport canoe blends timeless canoe design with modern materials to create a smooth, graceful, and confidence-inspiring boat for paddlers who value both performance and feel. Inspired by traditional First Nations canoe shapes, refined over generations, this classic-style canoe offers exceptional glide, balanced handling, and a reassuring ride on both lakes and rivers. Its arched hull and softly rounded chines deliver smooth transitions, efficient cruising, and a comfortable, predictable feel in a wide range of conditions.

Designed for enjoyment as much as performance, the Prospecteur Sport is agile on moving water and equally at home on calm lakes, making it an excellent choice for recreational paddlers and day trippers. The harmonious hull shape rewards smooth paddle strokes and provides a relaxed, efficient paddling experience, whether you’re exploring close to the cottage or heading out for a full day on the water.

Available at Wilderness Supply in Winnipeg and Thunder Bay, the Esquif Prospecteur Sport is a beautiful, versatile canoe for Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario paddlers who want classic lines, modern durability, and a canoe that feels as good to paddle as it looks.
