Pelican Explorer 146 DLX Canoe

More Details

The Pelican Explorer 146 DLX answers the two questions we  are asked most frequently when customers are looking for their first canoe: What is your most stable canoe? and do you have one with built in back support?

With a wide beam of almost a metre and a flat bottom carrying minimal rocker, the Pelican Explorer 146 DLX is stable, predictable and sure footed. First time paddlers or those looking for a more relaxed ride on flat water will find paddling the DLX brings no surprises and leaves the paddler free to concentrate on the view. The three tough plastic bench seats are comfortable and well thought out with the main two positions coming with folding back support and the middle seat having a cooler box style storage compartment built into the bench.

Because the Explorer 146 is stable, secure and comfortable it is ideal not just for recreational use but for longer expeditions as well. A carrying capacity of 363kg means loading the DLX up with everything from camping gear to tackle a multi-day paddle is well within its brief and as the hull is made from tough durable RAM-X there are no worries about bumpy portages or rocky banks. Built in carry handles ease the process of moving it around locks etc and there are even drink and rod holders for those long lazy days on the lake.
