    Build Your Own Venture Afon River Canoe in CoreLite

    Customise and build your own traditional-style Venture Afon Canoe and excel in the wilderness, expeditions and whitewater trips across the globe. Expert Advice - Afterpay - Free delivery

    Afon, similar to Avon, is derived from the Celtic British word for 'river'; this simple word in itself says everything about this canoe.

    Rivers can be tranquil, or they can be wild, and the Venture Afon is a true enthusiast's canoe in which you can enjoy either variety as well as everything between, whether paddled solo or tandem. High volume ends, a flared bow, a subtle V-hull, and paddle cutaways all produce a canoe that is responsive and an utter joy to paddle, whilst continuous hull curvature gives a progressive feel, and high secondary stability.

    The Afon tracks beautifully when flat, but heel it over onto its high-stability chines and the paddle cutaways will allow you to perfectly place your blade and swing the boat around on the spot; on the way downriver you'll notice the flared, high volume bow picking up through features and keeping you dry and headed in the right direction.
    Technical Information

    You won't find any LDPE in Venture canoes & kayaks; Venture leaves that to carrier bags and use high-quality, proprietary HDPE developed alongside multiple suppliers specifically for producing highly UV, scratch, and impact-resistant boats in 3 carefully configured constructions.

    CoreLiteTM

    • A triple-layer, polyethylene foam sandwich material for a great stiffness-to-weight ratio with tried and tested durability.
    • CoreLite is only available in Venture Canoes.
