This Northstar B17 Aluminum trim comes with whitewater eyelets and lining holes. This touring canoe is a tough, maneuverable compact canoe It is Northstar's most versatile design. As such, it is just right for a day exploring in tandem, or even a wilderness trip. It’s a full hull with plenty of capacity in a short and maneuverable package. The B17 is a dry boat with predictable behavior in moving water thanks to the symmetrical rocker. Its secondary stability will come in handy when the toddlers lean to the side to look at the trout they just spotted. Plus, its lack of a bow thwart makes it a thrill to solo paddle.
This special B17 has a hull constructed of tough IXP. It is appropriate for whitewater or extended river trips.
