Our Guide canoes draw from the historic canoes by White and Old Town of the same name. The stem profile doesn’t have as much re-curve as the Cheemaun or the Old Town Guides, it’s more reminiscent of the profile EM White used. The sheer is also more White with a graceful fair curve from end to end without the more dramatic upturn in the ends some of the other builders used. It’s a classic look and minimizes the sail effect that tall ends can have in windy conditions. With a flatter bottom than either the Cheemaun or Prospector and slight rocker they make nice tripping boats but still track well on flat water.
