Our founder’s mission was simple - to build a better canoe. With a wider of variety of hull designs than any other canoe manufacturer, cases full of awards and accolades, and quality materials, you’re sure to find the perfect canoe.

We believe our lineup is the realization of our original promise and passion. We invite you to experience our heritage of fine craftsmanship combined with innovative materials and designs in our line-up of truly modern classics.

Recreation

The innovation we bring to the canoe industry is not limited to design and construction. We're constantly investigating new ways to grow our family of paddlers. For those who are newly introduced to this world or who are looking for a low maintenance solution for getting their family on the water, we offer our selection of Recreational Canoes. Easy paddling, multiple uses and virtually no upkeep, make these the ultimate grab-and-go boats.

River

The question is inevitable. And the answer is yes. There is, in fact, a Mad River. Its waters run through Waitsfield, Vermont, where Mad River Canoe was first founded. Our River Canoes are good, adaptable boats designed with added emphasis on performance in moving waters, favoring maneuverability over tracking.

Touring

The process of designing and building boats is as much art as science. And for many of us, the journey can be more rewarding than the destination. If you are one who appreciates the beauty and discovery of the journey, then our Touring Canoes were crafted with you in mind. Designed for cruising on open waters, these hulls and material offer a light weight and maximum paddling efficiency.

Sporting

Legend has it, that Rabbit was a great hunter. In fact, he once caught The Man in the Moon. He returned him of course. It was the sporting thing to do. Naturally, any sporting canoe we would put forth would be designed with the sportsman in mind. Our Sporting Canoes offer a high level of stability and easy access to gear, making for enjoyable days on the lake or in the marsh.

Versatile

In much the same way that Rabbit felt confident on all manner of terrain, our Versatile Canoes will help you feel confident on both flat and white water adventures. The moderate rocker and durable material offer all around performance with minimal compromise: the best design for most water. If your paddling takes you from rivers to lakes, our Versatile Canoes are your best bet.

Whitewater

Rabbit's reputation as a trickster reminds us to incorporate an element of play in our days as well as our designs. And always end our day with a smile. We invite you to do the same and offer our Whitewater Canoes to help find the fun. These are very specialized boats for high level whitewater play. These tried and true designs can go anywhere a kayak can go and have won more than their share of whitewater championships.
