““I am so impressed how my Windigo handles on canoe trips up north. Thank you for building such a lovely canoe that I can use on trips and at home with my family.” Garrett WA.”

18' Windigo

The Windigo is favored by those who desire a little more room. It has a generous carrying capacity for cargo and people yet its graceful lines give it a light feel throughout.

Even when lightly loaded with just two people, the Windigo is very stable. When fully loaded with gear and people, the fine entry lines at the ends allow for easy movement through the water with just enough fullness in the quarters for plenty of buoyancy.

Our years spent guiding canoe trips up north inspired the Windigo's design. It is reminiscent of the early woodsman canoes of Canada and Maine and has that old time fishing, hunting, and guiding feel to it. The old guides of this era desired a canoe that could hold weight while maintaining seaworthiness, was stable enough for their inexperienced sports, and was maneuverable enough under the power of one paddle (the guides).

Whether you will use your Windigo on long canoe trips or for every day use with the family, you will find it a pleasurable and comfortable canoe to paddle.
