The Bushranger - Australia's Favourite Canoe!

The Bushranger is the biggest selling canoe in Australia! And when you see the conditions the Bushranger is expected to perform under, it is easy to see why.
The tough polyethylene construction will withstand the roughest of conditions (human and environmental), and makes the Bushranger virtually maintenance free. This is great news for hire operators, as more time on the water means more money in your pocket!
Used by more schools, scout groups and hire operators than any other canoe, the popularity of the Bushranger is due to its reputation for being super safe and extremely reliable.
The Bushranger is also very popular with growing families. It can be used for a family fun day on the water or a fishing trip, and there is space to store supplies for a few nights camping on the river.
Great on flat water, the Bushranger is also suitable to use in white water (up to grade 2 rapids) and the generous cockpit combing allows for spraydecks to be attached securely.
The reputation for being a versatile canoe that is safe, reliable and exceptional value for money will see that the Bushranger continues to be Australia's Most Popular Canoe.
