14 foot solo canoe "Bufflehead"
This is one of those boats that I think everyone should have. Lets face it, every now and then you just
want to grab a boat and hit the water for a couple hours after work. So what stops you? Usually it is
the perceived hassle of loading up the boat and actually getting on the water. No one ever regrets it
once they are there. Bufflehead is the no hassle way to get to the water. At just 14' and a scant 30 lbs
or so, there just isn't any reason not to get on the water for that last couple of hours before sunset.

This boat is a close relative to the "little Rob" in functionality. The
"Little Rob" is designed for a comfortable sit on the bottom style
of paddling with a kayak paddle where "Bufflehead" is more of a
traditional canoe with a seat and yoke for those more comfortable
up off the bottom or in a kneeling position. You can also add a
seat back for comfort if you choose. With a full 33" beam you will
find Bufflehead stable and a joy to paddle.

If you do not need a full or partial kit and simply need the epoxy and fiberglass cloth, we have put together the Epoxy kit that I use
during the building of these boats on the videos and have made them available here for your convenience. These kits have the
hardener, the right resin for laying up glass cloth, the thickening agent for your gluing needs as well as calibrated pumps for
measuring the hardeners and LV resin and the fiberglass cloth.
