The Nova Craft Bob Special 15 traces its roots to the Chestnut Canoe Company, which introduced the original Bob Special to meet the need for a lightweight canoe well suited to solo tripping and casual tandem paddling. Wider than normal for excellent stability, yet hull-optimized for remarkable speed, Nova Craft's version builds on the Chestnut original with improvements for greater speed and seaworthiness.
Ideally suited as a tandem day-tripper yet large enough for a weekend trip, the Bob really shines when paddled solo by a competent paddler. It has a unique blend of characteristics that novice paddlers can enjoy and experts can savour. Made in Canada.
