Navarro Canoe Co.

Navarro Canoe Co. Handcrafting your experience since 1978. Retired heirloom Navarro Canoes go to estates, not landfills. Navarro Canoes are handcrafted.

The hulls are made of resin and fiberglass, though an even lighter weight version uses Kevlar. Cherry ribs reinforce the hulls and add distinction and beauty. Other hardwoods are used for the upper structures of all canoes. Large seats are laced with durable nylon. Pride and attention to details creates a unique piece.

https://youtu.be/fBWyVBn8fyY Robert Lester arrived last evening in the and just in time to spend 30+ minutes with the Illowa Council, Scouting America for Q&A after they watched Columbia River Canoe Project . Here's a 2 min clip . . . "I don't need $30B and an act of congress to make a difference." Now who does that remind us of that taught us this same lesson over 20 years ago and is still walking the talk cleaning up our rivers?! There's still time to get your ticket to see the movie this Wed evening and meet Robert yourself. https://www.navarrocanoe.com/columbia-river-canoe-project
