Concepts
Mad River Canoe Malecite Eco (The "Green Canoe")
“Going Green.” For some, it’s a fad. For others it’s a mission. For Mad River Canoe, it’s not as much a matter of fashion as it is principle. For our newest concept boat, we decided to take a journey of discovery: to figure out what we’re doing right and what we can do better. The journey was fruitful. The findings were many. And the cumulative result is the Malecite ECO.
Mad River Canoe Expedition 186cx Limited Edition
Features our signature shallow V-shaped hull, a
swedeform asymmetric profile for maximum paddling efficiency and speed,
complemented by significant flare above the waterline for dryness and

that reduces weight and ensures faster drainage, a tripping thwart for
added structural support and stiffness, and a lighter slotted gunwale
system. Only 50 hand-crafted canoes available worldwide.
