MAD RIVER REFLECTION 17 (CANE-WOOD)

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.

The Reflection series offers reassuring stability, effortless straight-ahead efficiency and surprising maneuverability for use on lakes or rivers.

With ample capacity and a long hull, the Reflection 17 is an ideal choice for family outings. The sturdy, care-free Royalex® by Spartech® hull shrugs off the inevitable shallows and lurking boulders while remaining light-weight enough to portage when necessary. In addition to care-free durability, the Royalex® by Spartech® hull also provides a forgiving learning curve, making it a great “trainer” canoe for the whole family.

If you're in the market for a large multi-day or family canoe that holds its own on lakes with the capability to do some downriver work, the Reflection 17 is worth a long look.

Royalex® by Spartech® is a vacuum-formed sheet laminate consisting of external vinyl layers enclosing multiple ABS plastic layers and a foam core.
