The overall shape and design of this canoe boasts stability and responsiveness, creating a smooth and controlled feeling for the canoeist.
At the bow and stern, Old Town have given the Discovery 158 a moderate amount of rocker, helping the canoe to stay above the water, pushing up and over river features you'd want to avoid. With a 35.5 inch width, the canoe offer a high level of stability for beginners, but also encourages paddlers to challenge their abilities in tougher environments.
The Discovery 158 is a great option for outdoor enthusiasts, and families with an adventurous nature, offering plenty of room for small passengers and extra equipment, perfect for camping trips. The outfitting consists of wood-webbed seats at the bow & stern, a kneeling thwart, and a carrying yoke in the centre.
The overall length of the canoe is 15ft8, hence the name Discovery 158, which is the perfect option for paddling tandem with occasional solo use. Solo canoeists can utilise the kneeling thwart to position themselves in the best spot for increased control and better weight distribution.
