Koru

Koru is a Native term referring to a renewal or the springtime rebirth of life. We thought this was a fitting name for our new technologically advanced composite canoe. The process of bringing the Algonquin and Ojibway hunting canoe designs back to life took us just over two years. We carefully adapted the design to modern paddling styles and found just the right material and layup to leapfrog competitors. By adding tumblehome and extending the waterline slightly with less rocker, we were able to provide a swift, efficient and comfortable paddling experience for our customers.
