Mad River Canoe

Mad River Canoe's first boat was designed and built in 1971... and then its creator, Jim Henry, won the Downriver National Championship in it. Building a tradition out of innovation, Mad River Canoe was the first to use kevlar in canoe designs, presently offers a wider variety of canoe hull shapes than anyone else and continues to rake in accolades including 3 different "Manufacturer of the year" awards from Canoe & Kayak Magazine. The Mad River Journey canoe -- the replacement for the classic Mad River Explorer canoe! -- is the new standard, and the Mad River Adventure canoe is an incredible value for the new paddler. Put simply: Mad River Canoe is a world-class leader in canoe manufacturing.
