Ready Built Ranger 15

Product Description

We currently have a ready-built Ranger 15 canoe for sale. We built this canoe to demonstrate strip-planking techniques and our unique finger-jointed bead-and-cove strips. The boat is brand-new and is currently on display in our showroom.

All the photos above are of the actual boat for sale. It looks even better when you see it in person, with its glossy, slippery hull and eye-catching wood grain details.

The Ranger 15 is a pocket-sized Prospector canoe: a classic and efficient shape, popular for its stability, manouvrability and excellent load-carrying capacity.

Please get in touch if you have any questions about this boat or to arrange a viewing at our showroom near Kendal.

You can order the boat on our website, but this is priced for collection only. If you require delivery, please contact us for a shipping quote before ordering.
