Northwind 17

NorthStar’s most popular tandem tripper. Remarkably maneuverable, yet reassuringly stable. Known as one of the most seaworthy, yet fast, canoes available. When other canoes are wind-bound you’ll enjoy the thrill of playing in the waves.

StarLite (SL):

All Aramid. A proprietary yellow and black makes a stunning moiré pattern. Full wet bag minimizes resin and creates the lightest weight canoe available. Foam core, ribs and internal reinforcements make a stiff, efficient hull. Exterior resin coated for maximum weight savings.

BlackLite (BL):

Aramid Reinforcements. A carbon outer with Aramid reinforcements. Combines the stiffness of carbon fiber and the tensile strength of Aramid. The full wet vacuum bag and foam core allows balanced strength and weight. Exterior resin coated for maximum weight savings.

Stealth: (STLH)

Carbon and Black Innegra co-woven outer with inner blanket of proprietary yellow and black aramid. The lightest lamination at the expense of some durability, a dream for wet footed portaging. Only available with E6 trim and E6 parts: canoe weight reflects E6/E6 savings. Stealth is lighter than StarLite and has lower impact resistance. Many options are not offered with Stealth including: skid plates, adjustable seats, third seats, and kneeling thwarts.
