Wenonah Canoes

Established formally in 1968, We-no-nah Canoe has roots reaching back to the 1950's. The company is the outgrowth of a lifelong devotion to paddling by Mike Cichanowski, who began canoeing as a young Boy Scout, and who began manufacturing canoes while still in college. Today, We-no-nah is among the largest makers of canoes in general, and is the largest maker of ultra-light and high-performance models.

Wenonah Canak 16

With a hull shape similar to that of our most popular solo canoe the Prism, the new Wenonah Canak is great for solo lake camping when the capacity and portability of a canoe is needed, and the touring ability of a kayak is desired. The one of a kind bow and stern storage compartments are spacious and more accessible than standard kayak hatches for easy loading and unloading of canoe camping sized packs (rectangular packs up to 5500 cubes fit in the bow and 7000 cubes fit in the stern). The slip over covers provide a dry ride no matter the weather conditions. The floor mounted sliding seat and adjustable kayak style foot braces make this boat as comfortable as any large cockpit kayak. Choose from our eight composite colors for the deck, the hull is skin coat. No options.

Wenonah Vagabond 14'5"

The Vagabond is only moderately wide but is full from bow to stern, giving good stability and volume for its size. Though only big enough for short trips, it holds plenty of gear for fishing and casual use.

Wenonah Adirondack 16'

Meant for day outings and for trips of a night or two, this model only has medium volume, but it paddles very efficiently with a light-to-moderate load. Canoe & Kayak Magazine tested it and said, "This is one smooth-paddling canoe, and it has excellent final stability. It's a bit less initially stable, but that is what gains the efficient paddling and glide."

Wenonah Argosy 14'6"

This canoe features more rocker (especially near the bow), more depth amidships, more bow flare and deeper ends to help keep the canoe dry in moderate whitewater. With slightly more rocker than many of our models, the Argosy excels in paddling through moving water, yet still glides through calm water effortlessly.

Wenonah Aurora 16'

Not meant for heavy expeditions, the Aurora does suit typical trips well. It's an easy-paddling hull that retains sufficient freeboard when loaded. Perhaps the Aurora's best feature is its good blend of initial and final stabilities. While steady enough for hunting or fishing, and to haul kids or a dog who may jump around, it's very seaworthy for a mid-sized canoe. Its carefully-contoured, shallow-arch hull is the reason.

Wenonah Boundary Waters 17'

Rock-solid stability with high capacity and good glide. This new touring canoe offers a unique blend of excellent stability and easy paddling. Extra fullness throughout the middle gives this canoe extra capacity. The bow and stern height are kept low to catch less wind. Curved webbed seats keep you in the center, yet offer flexible seating. Use it by yourself, with the family, or to take it through rough water with confidence.

Wenonah Cascade 17'6"

Ideal to haul heavy loads on highly-challenging rivers. This canoe has blunt ends, angled stems, and 2" of rocker. It's also quite deep, and is one of our wider hulls. There's no mistaking the Cascade's mission; fast rivers, and treacherous waters.

Wenonah Champlain 18'

A versatile design with enhanced efficiency and seaworthiness. A larger, more stable version of our versatile Spirit II, the Champlain has the efficiency and capacity to haul heavy loads long distances, but is also pleasant to paddle lightly loaded.

Wenonah Encounter 17'

An expedition solo with exceptional capacity and good performance. Although not quite our longest solo, the Encounter's width and depth added to its length make it our highest-volume one. As such this hull is superb for trips, especially if taken by large people.

Wenonah Escapade 16'6"

The Escapade has the sleek lines of a performance canoe but with the depth and width of a touring canoe. Designer Dave Kruger says the Escapade is short, but speedy. It delivers plenty of performance yet has reasonable capacity for most paddling situations.

Wenonah Escape 17'6"

With this much versatility designed into a single canoe, the Escape may be the perfect canoe for many people looking for a performance canoe. Smaller paddlers, people who prefer a shorter canoe, and paddlers who spend time on smaller rivers and streams will find the Escape fits their needs perfectly.

Wenonah Itasca 19'

This ultimate expedition canoe hauls amazing loads, yet is easy to handle. Versatile enough for all-around use, the Itasca is an extreme design -- a seeming contradiction that takes some explaining. Large as it is, the Itasca handles like a smaller canoe. The wide and slightly-rockered hull turns much faster than you'd expect of its 19' length.

Wenonah Kingfisher 16'

While rock-solid stability is a major appeal of this recreational design, the Kingfisher has surprisingly good performance as well. Similar in concept to our Fisherman, the Kingfisher is an inch wider and a full two feet longer. Not only is it more comfortable for larger paddlers, the Kingfisher's extra length also gives it better efficiency, and improved capacity. And while it is not as maneuverable as the Fisherman, the Kingfisher's 16 foot length is still easy for most paddlers to manage.

Wenonah Minnesota II

If you travel in Minnesota's BWCA, or Canada's Quetico Park, you'll see lots of these Jensen-designed canoes. You'll hear rave reviews about them, too, because the Minnesota II is widely acclaimed by the dedicated paddlers, professional guides, and park rangers of the lake country as the ideal canoe for lengthy trips.

Wenonah Prism 16'6"

At 16'6" long with a straight keel line and a very good surface-to-volume ratio, this is a performance-oriented hull. It has sleek lines and fine ends to give superb glide and speed. Ideal for cruising with a light load, the Prism is also fairly deep and wide with full sides to give lots of volume. The bow and stern are slightly flared to deflect waves and bow depth carries rearward for even more dryness.

Wenonah Prospector 15

This shorter Prospector delivers great performance in a smaller package. Like all Prospectors, high volume sides give confidence in most paddling situations. Whether getting a thrill while paddling whitewater, going out on a short trip or exploring local waters, this Prospector can do it all.

Wenonah Prospector 16

This may be the closest thing to the original Prospector that you will find anywhere. A classic design with gracefully curved ends, and sweeping gunwales, the Prospector is a beautiful craft with a traditional look. Its beautiful lines combine form and function, enabling it to traverse both lakes and whitewater with ease.

Wenonah Spirit II 17'

"Balanced" is the best word to describe the Spirit II. It travels distances easily yet turns extremely well. It's capable on rapids, and open water, too. It's big enough for trips. It's also very stable. So, does it obsolete all others? No. If you want an elevated level of a certain attribute, say tracking or capacity, then a specialized design may suit you better. But if you need a canoe that delivers a good level of all types of performance, the Spirit II is ideal.

Wenonah Wenonah 17

New for 2011 we introduce the boat that started it all, the original, the 17 Wenonah. The first canoe ever designed by owner and founder Mike Cichanowski in 1965, this instant classic was originally built out of wood strip and fiberglass in Mikes parents backyard shed. A great general use, canoe camping, and family boat with a unique look and storied past, the 17 Wenonah is a must have for serious canoe connoisseurs and open boat history buffs.

Wenonah Voyager 17'6"

The solo version of the Minnesota II, the Voyager is long, lean, and quite deep. It has space and flotation for gear, with the efficiency to transport it well. A fine choice for lakes and open rivers, this hull addresses two salient issues: A solo trip requires more than half as much gear, but with only half the power to propel it. While some other models can fit enough load, the Voyager hauls it farther with less effort. It makes longer and heavier solo trips practical. Or, if a solo accompanies capable tandems on a trip, it usually must carry little gear, or it slows the pace. This hull makes the lone paddler an equal partner, hauling a fair share at a good rate.

Wenonah Wilderness 15'4"

Designed as a tripper, the Wilderness is a dream on portages allowing for more time on the water and additional distance each day. A well-rounded stability profile and moderate rocker inspire confidence and maneuverability, whether on a loaded tour or evening paddle. The Wenonah Wilderness is available in Royalex and our proven light weight composite constructions at a price for all budgets.

Wenonah Wee Lassie 12'6"

The Wenonah Wee Lassie is the classic Adirondack-style paddling boat from the romantic days of recreational paddling. Designed for all paddlers, our rendition marries this historical design with our proven composite construction techniques to produce a modernized classic that the original designers could never have imagined. Built exclusively in a Kevlar® construction, our Wee Lassie is an effortless carry to and from the waters edge. We’ve updated the Wee Lassie giving her a fore/aft adjustable floor mounted seat to maintain trim. Quick on the water and easy to maneuver, the Wee Lassie is a joy to paddle while exploring small lakes and ponds.

Wenonah Fusion 13'

New for 2009, the Fusion is a uniquely designed solo canoe blending the best features of both a canoe and kayak for recreation and fishing. Extra stable, it can be paddled with a double or single blade paddle and its foot controlled rudder makes maneuvering a cinch. The padded high back seat comes standard and allows for hours of comfort. Lighter, quicker, and more manuverable than any fishing kayaks, the Fusion also runs drier and holds more gear while keeping it all readily accessible. Designed for personal accessorization of rod holders and storage trays for a truly customized craft. Rudder is optional.

Wenonah Backwater 15

A square stern canoe with excellent stability. New for 2010, the Backwater square stern canoe is for sportsmen with motorized intentions. The rigid aluminum and wood mounting bracket makes for quick and easy addition of a small motor. Sized for two people and a load of gear, it works great for duck hunting shallow backwater marshes or float fishing rocky rivers. Super stable, the Backwater is a blast when coupled with the right sized motor. We recommend a small outboard in the 2-3hp range, or a trolling motor in 50-55# thrust range to unlock this boats true potential. To off set the weight of the motor, place the battery or gas tank as far forward as possible.
