Quite a bit more durable than Wenonah's \"graphite ultra-light\" layup with less Kelvar, which was derived to shave off every pound possible for their racing canoes.  \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eWe've been ordering this same Carbon Kevlar layup for decades since its beauty, lightness and durability suits our customers very well.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVagabond is our mid-sized, maneuverable solo canoe for solo touring or exploring on moderate lakes, rivers and streams.  Bring some gear, your adventurous spirit will come back satisfied.  This is a great choice for an all-around solo canoe. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHighly maneuverable, and its sleek hull shape is very quiet when tracking birds through the backwaters. \u003cbr\u003eThe Vagabond is a solo of moderate width, with good volume from bow to stern, giving good tracking, stability and capacity for its size. While just big enough for solo tripping, Vagabond holds plenty of gear for those who will portage, while still being a sensible size for day trips, fishing and casual use.  Vagabond's compact size makes it easy to car-top and carry, and convenient to store.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eVagabond is much lighter than kayaks of similar length... and easily outperforms them.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhen paddled with a single blade, or double blade paddle, Vagabond is sure to please.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Vagabond responds well when used with a single blade or a double blade paddle. A kayak style paddle such as our 260cm double blade offers improved performance on calm water, and better control in wind or adverse weather.  Vagabond is lighter than any kayak of comparable length, and when paddled this way, will easily outperform a kayak of similar size.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComparisons:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vagabond is responsive for experienced paddlers and enjoyable for new paddlers.  When compared to shorter pack style canoes, Vagabond has more performance, seaworthiness and capacity.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVagabond is similar stability but is more maneuverable, with 1\/2\" more depth at center when compared to the Basswood solo.  Vagabond is similar to our Wilderness but just a bit more compact. Our Wilderness and Prism are longer and thus have more speed and capacity for gear than Vagabond.  Prism and Wilderness can handle either a larger paddler and\/or more gear, where Vagabond is about a foot shorter and better for a more modest load.  Prism includes the bucket style seat for sitting only, whereas the Vagabond seat is adjustable in height and angle for sitting or kneeling.  When compared to Vagabond, the Prism is faster but less maneuverable since it is about 2 feet longer with less rocker.  \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eOver many years we have noticed how Wenonah canoes hold up MUCH better than other brands, some of those cost Less, while other cost much More!  \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eLength: 14' 6\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eGunwale Width: 28\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eMaximum Width: 29.75\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eWaterline Width: 29.75\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eStern Depth: 14.5\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eCenter Depth: 12.5\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eBow Depth: 16\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eRocker: 1.25\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eKevlar Ultra-light:  31 lbs.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eCarbon Kevlar Ultra-light:  29 lbs.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eTuf-weave Flex-core:  50 lbs.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePricing:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eOur price is good for our in-stock Wenonah Vagabond, Carbon Kevlar Ultra-light, at just 29 lbs.  Exterior is clear Carbon fiber; interior layers are Kevlar.  Black anodized aluminum trim, adjustable footbrace and hung web seat that adjusts in height as well as angle, for sitting or kneeling.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003ePick up available at our Waterport, NY store.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eShipping\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003emay\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ebe available for an extra fee.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-12 col-sm-3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-12 col-sm-3\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOptions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eRemovable Yoke\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eBench style SuperSeat -backrest\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eBench style SuperSeat -seat cushion\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eScotty Rodholders\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eScotty Camera\/Go-pro mount\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003eCup holders\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-5 nopad\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e We recommend 303 UV protection, at least twice a year if you store your canoe indoors, more often if you don't.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Wenonah","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41982157488164,"sku":null,"price":3999.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/7747\/0244\/files\/Wenonah-Vagabond-Carbon-Kevlar1.png?v=1792806022","url":"https:\/\/oakorchardcanoe.com\/products\/wenonah-vagabond-carbon-kevlar-ultralight","provider":"Oak Orchard Canoe Kayak Experts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
