A canoe provides significant benefits to every family member. In fact, many of us credit their time on canoe trips with making them the people they are today whether it be with a scout troop or with the family on camping trips. Most outdoor enthusiasts will tell you that Hellman canoes and kayaks are built to provide a lifetime of fun and adventure. Our canoes are custom built in the Kootenays to include your special requests, with a workmanship guarantee.
