Kevlar Hulled Boats

Weighing in at around 95lbs, the kevlar version of the Adirondack style Guideboat from Dan Gallagher Carving and Woodwork has all the functionality and versatility of a canoe. as well as increased stability and the efficiency and grace of a row boat. All the beauty of our 'traditional boats' but with the extreme durability and ease of care of kevlar.

Our kevlar boats are constructed of the finest quality kevlar fibre and resins. Wooden decks, gunwhales and seats add a touch of tradition to a virtually maintenance free hull. The hull design is based on the lines of our wooden boats. The kevlar boats however, have a slightly higher sheer line providing more freeboard.  These boats are available custom made to order, and can be personalized to fit your needs and aesthetic sensibility.

Each boat comes with Mahogany decks, gunwhales and trim. Unseen deck supports and carlins are made form select Western red Cedar.  White is the standard colour for our boats but a variety of colours are available on request.  Each boat also includes three sheet caned seats and one backrest in either ash or cherry.

These boats are also available in fibreglass. 

 

Enjoying a row on Lake Ontario.  Special order teal coloured boat in kevlar.

 

You can chose from a range of colours for both the exterior and the interior as well as a variety of woods for the decks, gunwhales and seats.

 

These boats are a marvel of rowing efficiency...as beautiful to row as they are to look at.
