Description

'Afon', similar to 'Avon', is derived from the Celtic British word for 'river'; this simple word in itself says everything about this canoe.

Rivers can be tranquil, or they can be wild, and the Venture Afon is a true enthusiast's canoe in which you can enjoy either variety as well as everything between, whether paddled solo or tandem.

High volume ends, a flared bow, a subtle V-hull, and paddle cutaways all produce a canoe that is responsive and an utter joy to paddle, whilst continuous hull curvature gives a progressive feel, and high secondary stability.

The Afon tracks beautifully when flat, but heel it over onto its high-stability chines and the paddle cutaways will allow you to perfectly place your blade and swing the boat around on the spot; on the way downriver you'll notice the flared, high volume bow picking up through features and keeping you dry and headed in the right direction.

Features

  • Adjustable Hangers - Quick, solid height and angle adjustment on seats and kneeling thwarts to suit different paddlers and situations.
  • Contoured Carrying Yoke - Fitted balanced, oiled to match the seats and shaped for comfortable shoulder carrying. The yoke also provides rigidity to the boat's shell.
  • Moulded-In Gunwales and End Decks - Integrated gunwales for higher durability and lower weight.
  • Oiled Wood Web Seats -Not just an optional upgrade, these durable and attractive seats come as standard on all Venture Canoes.
  • Premium Wooden Carry Handles - Perfectly compliment the wooden seats and create something that looks as good off the water as on it.
