Description
Order-In Information: Sportspal canoes can be ordered in for our upcoming spring shipment or factory order. They are marked as being in stock to facilitate the transaction, which reserves your boat and starts the order process. Please contact our Arnprior shop for current factory lead times and arrival estimates.
Built as a compact, heavy-duty sportsman’s platform, the 12′ Wide Transom Sportspal pairs easy car-top portability with exceptional stern buoyancy. Featuring a broad 30-inch transom, it supports heavier rear loads and delivers superior stability when standing to cast, waterfowl hunting, or running an outboard or electric trolling motor up to 2 HP. Outfitted from the factory with webbed hardwood seats, a wide 38-inch beam, and exterior foam side sponsons, it keeps two paddlers and 550 lbs of gear steady on the water while the full interior foam liner muffles tackle box clatter and shifting feet.
