Nova Craft Canoe began in 1970, when we started producing a limited selection of fiberglass canoes in a small-scale, garage-based operation near London, Ontario, Canada. As the years passed and the reputation of our quality designs and workmanship quickly spread, the company naturally began to grow. As a result, we have steadily responded to customer requests for more model choices and material options. We are proud to say that our selection has progressed from a handful of specialized designs to a full catalogue with something to offer every paddler, with a focus on venerated classic Canadian designs from the Chestnut Canoe Company.

Overview

New for 2024! Our most multipurpose solo canoe model yet: a scaled down version of our popular Prospector design best suited for independent backcountry adventure. The Prospector 14' Solo features a symmetrical hull with moderate rocker for responsive performance. More efficient on flatwater than its tandem counterparts, while maintaining the capacity you expect from a Prospector.
Our wooden bench seat can be ordered hung flat or angled depending on your preference. For backcountry use we recommend adding the removeable yoke option for ease of use on the portage trail.
