The Canadian canoe is an open boat with 2 or 3 seats. This boat is easy to pack and can be paddled with a single paddle. It is great for smaller lakes and river trips. The Canadian canoe has a total maximum weight capacity of 250kg, with a maximum of 200kg for human weight. In our canoes, we take a maximum of 2 adults per boat. We use the middle seat for smaller children. It is also possible to fit 3 smaller teenagers in a Canadian canoe.
