Pelican 15' 6" Dare Devil

The Dare Devil has two bonded layers of polyethylene in the skin to give increased rigidity and longevity. The central seat is a picnic cooler with a hinged lid (which also doubles as a live-well for the children's marine specimens!). 

There is a metal keelson bar running the length of the boat which is sprung into position by cones under the seats.  This gives very good longitudinal strength, a medium rocker action and improved linear tracking.  These cones are filled with polystyrene which together with the hollow rigid seats give this boad very good buoyancy in the event of a capsize.

The boat is exceptionally comfortable, coming complete with leather effect foam cushions with a zip to facilitate cleaning and poppers to hold them in place.  The front and cooler seats also have two fishing rod holders each.  The cooler seat has four moulded in cup holders   The front and rear paddling positions have moulded knee receptacles to give even greater comfort when paddling longer distances.

This canoe has no wooden parts.  The boat can be left outside in all weather conditions and it will not significantly deteriorate and will last many years. When put on the water it becomes a comfortable and safe boat for families or individuals to spend many hours travelling or just sitting and watching.
