Northstar Northwind Solo Touring Canoe BlackLite with Wood Trim and Internal Skid Plates
The Northstar Northwind Solo Blacklite by Northwest Kayaks is good for your spirit. It's smooth as silk on flatwater lakes, bays, and shines on rivers, too. This solo touring canoe is big enough to bring your dog along for the adventure. This Solo is constructed in the BlackLite layup, which is carbon outer with Aramid reinforcements. Wood trim. Internal skid plates. At only 30 lbs it's no problem taking it to shore or portaging between lakes!
This canoe has beautiful wood trim factory installed.
BlackLite Construction
Carbon outer with Aramid reinforcements. Combines the stiffness of carbon fiber with the excellent tensile strength of Aramid. Northwind's full wet vacuum bag and foam core allows us to artfully balance strength and weight. For those that want significantly greater durability than StarLite, yet value a lightweight canoe. Exterior resin coated for maximum weight savings.
Color: Black carbon weave.
