Our standard 3-person canoes (C3) are generally suitable for day trips or short tours with one overnight stay and light gear. However, if you are planning a longer tour, we strongly recommend choosing a larger boat.
Our recommendations:
- For day trips or 1 overnight stay: The standard C3 is sufficient as long as you carry only light gear. It also comfortably fits 2 adults with a child, offering flexibility for shorter trips.
- For longer tours or heavy gear: Choose the C3-big, our large 3-person canoe. It offers significantly more storage space and stability, making multi-day trips with full gear much more comfortable.
- For 2 people with a dog: We recommend booking the C2-big (the same boat as the C3-big but configured for 2 people). It provides ample space for dog food, accessories, and additional gear, ensuring a safe and comfortable experience on longer tours.
Why the C2-big or C3-big is ideal for longer tours:
More storage space: Plenty of room for tents, food, dog supplies, and dry bags
Better stability: Ideal for windy conditions or extended water crossings
Comfortable paddling: No risk of overloading and reduced performance
Efficient and fast: Despite the added space, the longer hull ensures you maintain speed and efficiency, comparable to our standard canoes.
