About Us
We have been avid paddlers (and outdoor enthusiasts) for many years with our traditional aluminum Browning canoe. We have had an Ocean Yak for a couple of years and loved using that for our "solo" trips. We have been friends with Rick and Tammy Kilpatrick for many years and have shared many paddling trips on our local waterways together. After trying their NuCanoe boats we loved them and have finally purchased our own NuCanoe.
Why I Chose NuCanoe
We especially like the stability and easy maneuverability of the NuCanoes. We like that we need very little clearance and can maneuver through much more shallow water than with an aluminum canoe. We also like the easy grab handles to lift and load the canoes.
Getting Out There
We love to paddle smaller rivers and small secluded lakes and marshes to enjoy nature and wildlife.
Our Favorite NuCanoe Story
We have limited actual NuCanoe stories at this time, but on our very first outing of our own NuCanoe, we paddled on a small lake that is not well known in our area, it is fairly secluded and has a shallow back area that has a rocky point that has to be maneuvered to get back into. This was no problem for our NuCanoe and we experienced a plethera of wildlife sightings from turtles, fish, numerous types of ducks and geese, including also hearing a couple of turkeys calling back and forth to each other. You could tell that the local animals were not used to seeing many humans and was awesome to witness them in their natural environment.
