This is a Prospecteur 15 tandem canoe if manufactured in St-Tite, Quebec by Canots Rhéaume. The dark carbon exterior, along with composite gunwales, combined with the contrasting POP of the orange details will certainly catch your eye! At just 37 lbs, it's a lot easier getting this P15 in and out of the water, on your car, and portaging for longer stretches.
