18' Jensen
  • Recreational Racing and fast cruising

    18 Jensen, 18'0"
    A foot longer than the 17' Jensen, our 18' Jensen dominated the UCSA Marathon canoe championships for many years. It tracks straighter and is slightly more efficient than the 17' Jensen and has a better glide ratio, making the 18' Jensen faster in straight ahead events and paddling.
         The 18' Jensen can also handle longer trips by people who are small or pack light. Its length provides surprising volume and buoyancy for a slim, low canoe.
         When Canoe & Kayak Magazine tested this hull, they said, "Few canoes match the smooth paddling performance of this one. The shallow-arch hull blends efficiency with enough stability to reassure newer paddlers. It's both stable and quick. I'd rate the 18' Jensen as one of the finest canoes I've ever paddled."
