*This canoe has seen a fair amount of use on the water in the past couple of years and does exhibit some scratches and imperfections. These are only cosmetic, however, and the boat has plenty of life left in it!
Inspired by the classic Prospector the Broadland has been designed as a really versatile boat that will inspire confidence. Silverbirch aimed for a design with excellent primary and secondary stability and achieved this with a flatter mid section to the hull but with enough rocker to allow for manovourability. These features along with other more subtle changes to the hull shape makes for a great boat for families looking for an easy to use canoe or more experienced paddlers wanting a nice boat to paddle. It can be paddled either in tandem or solo thanks to the symmetrical shape.
