A small, agile solo that's at home in rivers and streams.



Our newest solo canoe, the Argosy, focuses on river touring. Designed by Dave Kruger, this agile new solo will feel right at home in rivers and streams.
Moderate bow rocker allows this nimble solo to predictably cross eddylines with confidence, while extra volume in the sides (a Kruger trademark) allows the Argosy to be leaned predictably, further enhancing its performance in rough water.

The new 14'6" Argosy joins our larger solo, the Rendezvous -- as well as the tandem Rogue and Cascade -- as a down-sized, yet river friendly solo.

Although it is the same length as our recreational solo the Vagabond, this canoe features more rocker (especially near the bow), more depth amidships, more bow flare and deeper ends to help keep the canoe dry in moderate whitewater. With slightly more rocker than many of our models, the Argosy excels in paddling through moving water, yet still glides through calm water effortlessly.
