Outrigger Kit
An outrigger kit is used to add stability to your canoe, much like training wheels on a push-bike.
An outrigger kit is a great accessory when using your canoe for fishing, as it will allow you to stand up to cast and land your catch, and is added safety when using a motor.
Australis outrigger floats are available in colours to match your canoe.
