I only live 20 - 30 minutes from Old Town Maine home of Old Town canoe

Canoe Ninja - 6 years ago

It actually weighs 64 pounds.

Canoe Ninja with or without the seat?

LouB - 6 years ago

Kayak paddle for sure!

I bought a next canoe with matching paddle. It's great little boat but I flipped it and it doesn't float when swamped like he said, it's neutrally buoyant at best. I like that it is built like a tank because I use it in the Louisiana swamps so I'm always crossing fallen trees and stumps and it can really take a beating. Tracking is good and speed is similar to recreational kayaks.

This canoe is ridiculously overweight.

plutoplatters - 6 years ago

59 pounds is fine unless one's portaging a long way....

22BOZIDAR - 6 years ago

i like that seat, lookin to fit something like it to my 14ft old town.

Excelente canoa. Falta colocar motor elétrico ou pedalinho. Vcs tem representantes no Brasil?

Magnus Hedemark - 6 years ago

Don't trust Old Town's published specifications. Put this boat on a scale. It's way over 59 pounds. My 30 year old Old Town Camper 16 foot boat in Royalex layup is lighter than the modern Next solo canoe.

Magnus Hedemark - 6 years ago

That said, I like my Next. My kids love it. They prefer kayak paddling, but the Next lets them bring their dogs. PERFECT little recreation boat for someone who likes kayaking but wants the capacity of a canoe.

Richard Marshall - 6 years ago

59 lbs! Ouch. Check out old school Old Town Pack, much more load capacity (550lbs) and 33 lbs.

Magnus Hedemark - 6 years ago

I'm taking my family paddling today on the river. Old Town Next, Dagger Axis 12.0, and Old Town Camper 16RX. That 16 foot Royalex boat is actually lighter. Crazy! And no babying it around rocks. It'll be interesting to see if Old Town dives into TFormex for new boats, maybe revisits the Pack hull w/ Next outfitting. I hope so!

Magnus Hedemark I'll take the weight since it affords durability and reduces the need to baby the craft and worry about rocks.

Magnus Hedemark - 6 years ago

Hey sorry... I misstated the weight from memory. I went back and weighed it again and my actual number is closer to yours. Mine was about 64 pounds as delivered. The empty hull number is really misleading. That's like Ford advertising the weight of the mustang without the interior. The partial canoe isn't the weight people have to carry; it's the whole enchilada that matters. And that is a very portly ~64-65 pounds (for a 13 foot canoe, really, it's a lot!)

Jarvis Rinklebaker - 6 years ago

Magnus Hedemark mine is almost 65lbs with seat and foot rails. You're close with 70, but far off in this realm. I weighed mine on a deer weight hanging scale. Old Town says the listed weight is empty hull only. So they are spot on at 59lbs.

Magnus Hedemark - 6 years ago

It's not 59 pounds. I have one. It's much worse than that. I believe Old Town overestimates weight capacity and understates weight. Maybe that's a bare hull without the seat or footpegs. But the complete canoe is over 70 pounds dry.
