Open Canoeing

The Hou Canoes Hou Prospector is the ultimate all-rounder with a classic design. The Prospector was originally designed as a trading vessel, so had to paddle well on both open water lakes and white water rivers, it's also been designed to handle carrying a large load. This boat is a joy to paddle on lakes and rivers, and offers a dry, predictable ride whether you're solo or loaded up for a multi-day trip.

The Hou Canoes Hou 14 is the bigger version of the Hou 13 model, it's a touch longer and has a higher load carrying capacity. It is also able to track a little quicker and in reality is a bit more of a multi-tasking boat. Its depth and longer length allow for a drier ride in the bouncy stuff and provide more forward speed than its little brother. This shape was designed as an all rounder as so it will paddle well on the open water, as well as on flat rivers too. Simply put, a fantastic 1/2 person boat.
