MaTerIals
Your canoe is manufactured from High Density Polyethylene (HDPE). It is a very durable material. Our specially formulated HDPE has an
ultra-violet inhibitor blended throughout the material to reduce color fade and maintain its strength. Polyethylene is a somewhat flexible
material with some memory. This means it has a tendency to return to its original molded shape if distorteded.
