Nova Craft Prospector 15 TuffStuff

Highly Versatile Lightweight Open Canoe

The Nova Craft Prospector 15 TuffStuff is a classic yet versatile canoe that has all the same performance characteristics as the famous Prospector models. The TuffStuff canoes are a blend of basalt and Innegra fibres. Basalt fibres are made of melted volcanic basalt rock, and Innegra is a fibre consisting mostly of polypropylene. These are woven together into a cloth and mixed with high impact vinylester resin. As a result of TuffStuff, the canoes are amongst the strongest and most versatile on the market today. Tuffstuff canoes are a great choice for paddlers looking for a lightweight boat for use on flat water and sections of gentle moving water.

The Prospector 15 by Nova Craft is an all round canoe that is ideal for paddlers of any ability level who are looking for a classically shaped boat. There’s plenty of space for two people for an overnight paddling trip, ideal for families looking at touring up and down your local river or canal. The shallow arch hull also makes the Prospector 15 very stable, and this combined with a moderate rocker make it easy to manoeuvre and responsive, which makes white water and solo paddling easier.

Outfitted with traditional canoeing features, the Nova Craft Prospector 15 includes Nova Craft Ash Bootlace Seats, a Deluxe Carry Yoke, and factory fitted Bow and Stern Floatation Tanks.

The Nova Craft Prospector 15 is also available in Triple Layer SP3 Plastic, which is heavier but offers extra durability for white water paddling and commercial.
