Nova Craft - Bob Special 15' Fiberglass
Nova Craft - Bob Special 15'
Few canoes earn a reputation that spans generations, but the Bob Special has done exactly that. Originally designed by the legendary Chestnut Canoe Company as a lightweight solo tripper and tandem day boat, Nova Craft's updated version stays true to that heritage while refining the hull for improved speed and handling on Canadian waters.
The Bob Special's wider-than-average beam gives it a confidence-inspiring stability that newer paddlers genuinely appreciate, while the optimised hull shape rewards more experienced solo paddlers with surprisingly quick, responsive performance. It's the kind of canoe that grows with you. Day trip the local lake, load it up for a weekend portage route, or drop a single seat in the centre and really let it run.
Built in London, Ontario with Nova Craft's proven fibreglass layup, the Bob Special uses woven fibreglass cloth for a hull that's both lightweight and genuinely tough. Anodized aluminum gunwales come standard and are a smart, low-maintenance choice that holds up season after season without the upkeep that wood trim demands.
