Wenonah now offers SuperLite construction on some canoes

[Glenn MacGrady]

I'm not sure exactly when this new laminate construction was announced, but Wenonah now makes three or four canoes in "SuperLite," which is 15% lighter than their Ultralight Aramid construction. For example, the 18'-5" Minnesota II can be made at 36.5 pounds (16.5 kg).

The 16'-6" solo Prism is also made in SuperLite at 29 lbs.

Happy to see Wenonah embrace infusion technology! I'm sure they will expand the offering to other models eventually. I wonder what's next: carbon fiber gunnels perhaps?

The canoeing public is aging. This makes perfect sense.
