Over One Hundred Years of History
Old Town, Maine has for centuries been the ancestral home of the Penobscot tribe and, in fact, derives its name
as an acknowledgement of this proud heritage. Nestled on the edge of the Great North Woods amid the rapids,
waterfalls and unforgiving boulders of the Penobscot River, here the tribe hunted, fished and built their sturdy
birch bark canoes. And here, over 100 years ago, the Old Town Canoe Company was born.
Inspired by the Penobscot’s watercraft, our first wood and canvas canoe was built by A.E. Wickett in 1898
behind the local entrepreneur George Gray’s hardware store. Made with an eye for detail and a passion for
quality, it wasn’t long before Gray’s and Wickett’s canoes were selling like hotcakes. After brief periods as the
Indian Old Town Canoe Company and Robertson Old Town Canoe Company, the firm was incorporated in 1903
as Old Town Canoe Co.
After a strong run as the largest Canoe manufacturer in the world, Old Town made its first Kayak in 1940. By
1970 Old Town had won national awards for material innovation with its fiberglass boats and was the exclusive
manufacturer of canoes and kayaks to the US Team. Since then Old Town has helped reshape the canoe and
kayak industry by being the first to bring Royalex® and rotomolded plastic boats to market. Today Old Town
continues to advance the canoe and kayak tradition through design and material innovation.
1971
Old Town introduces one of the first
fiberglass specialty surf kayaks,
ushering in a new sport.

boat” as we reach serial number 1,000,000 and
commemorate the milestone with a special wood and
fiberglass canoe.
1997-2000 Old Town acquires Ocean Kayak, Inc. to become the largest canoe and kayak
manufacturer in the world. In 1999, Old Town adds 28,000 sq. ft. to meet increasing
demand for canoes and kayaks. In 2000, Johnson Outdoors, Inc. is officially established.
Old Town becomes a sister company to a family of quality paddling companies.
2006 Old Town leverages Necky®
design expertise to create the
Cayuga family of touring kayaks,
in response to consumer demands.
2005 Old Town introduces paradigm shifting recreational
kayak; the Dirigo, which quickly gained popularity to
become one of the top-selling kayaks within the first year
as well as winning multiple industry awards.
Paddling Through The Past
Tradition and technology have had a long and comfortable
marriage at Old Town. In 1898 we built our first woodand-canvas canoe, a more durable, lower maintenance
improvement on the Native American birch bark canoe that
was its inspiration. We did the same thing with the kayak
in 1940, rendering the traditional seal-skin design in more
durable wood-and-canvas.
The same spirit of innovation led us to introduce lightweight
fiberglass versions of our kayaks and canoes in the 1950s
and ‘60s. And it has continued into the 21st century, as we
continually strive to advance the art of paddling through
better designs and lighter, more durable materials, like
today’s PolyLink3™, SuperLink3™, variable layer, and
Advanced Composite Technology.
As much as we look ahead, though, we always keep one
eye on the past, continuing to be inspired by the best of
classic boat-building traditions.
Just some of the reasons today’s canoes and kayaks are
unrivaled in their ability to put the paddler in touch with the
rhythms of the water. Be it a still pond or river-paddling for
fitness, fishing or just for fun, we bring you closer to the
environment you’ve set out to enjoy.

Choosing the Right Boat for You
Considering a new canoe or kayak? Here’s the basic information you need to help you make an informed decision
on what type of boat is best for you.
Do I Want a Canoe or a Kayak?
Both are distinctly North American, and were created by indigenous people long before
Europeans arrived. Bark and dugout canoes were used throughout the North American
continent, and kayaks, covered with animal skins, had their beginnings in the icy Arctic
and sub-Arctic waters along the coast.
Today, the two boat styles overlap in some instances. Decked canoes and the large
open cockpit of recreational kayaks have blurred the distinction that once existed. Now,
the main distinction lies within the style of paddle used, and the position of the paddler
within the boat. It is interesting to note that some native American tribes used double
bladed paddles to propel their canoes, and single bladed paddles were occasionally
used in kayaks, so this “grey area” has actually existed for centuries.
In general, kayaks are lower and not as easily affected by windage. Using a double
bladed kayak paddle also helps to keep the kayak pointed in a straight line, especially
when paddling solo. To some, kayaks can feel a little confining, especially when wearing
a spray skirt. Canoes on the other hand require a little more technical expertise to
handle in wind or to keep in a straight line when paddling solo, and they can also handle
bulkier loads when tripping, which makes them great for families.
Every canoe and kayak is a compromise in design; compromises between how the boat
tracks and ease of maneuverability, weight versus durability, speed versus stability, and
so forth. The right balance of these and other factors is a purely personal choice and
requires a bit of thought prior to making your purchase decision.
Capacity
The capacity of a canoe or kayak is defined as the amount of weight (including the paddler) which a boat can carry and
still be safely operated. There are many different methods in use today to determine the maximum capacity of a boat.
At Old Town, we believe that the optimum range for paddling one of our craft is determined by the type of paddling being
done, the paddlers skill, and of course the boat design itself. We have calculated the Maximum Capacity rating of our
closed deck boats (kayaks) in accordance with the American Boat and Yacht Council standards. In the case of canoes,
we list the optimum paddling load range on our website and use the industry standard of 6” freeboard to determine the
maximum capacity.
Questions to Consider
The questions you ask yourself to make this decision will serve you well when narrowing down your specific boat
choices. So think through the what, why, where and with whom you will be paddling. For example, if you have dreams of
an epic journey, remember that you will first need to build your skills. And remember, even with all of the advancements
in canoe and kayak design, there is no boat that can overcome bad judgement, so make sure to be truthful with yourself
when assessing your abilities and goals.

What kind of paddling do you want to do? Simple relaxation, adrenaline rush, touring, fishing, or time out with family?
Are you paddling solo or with someone? If the latter, who will you be paddling with?
What is the average total weight you expect to carry? Factor in you, your partner and any gear.
What is your skill level and that of your partner?
Will you be travelling in long straight lines, or is maneuverability more important?
What types of water will you paddle in? Open ocean, coastal, surf, slow or fast-moving rivers, rapids, lakes, etc.
After you answer these questions, consider what is most important to you – size, durability, weight, looks
and/or price – and buy accordingly. Old Town Canoe and Kayak has a selection of boats for most types of paddling
and budgets.

Choosing the Kayak for You
We’ve organized our line of kayaks into four distinct categories to help you decide which is right for you.
Recreation
User-friendly kayaks for those who just want to get out on the water. They are stable and easy to maneuver, making
them ideal for quiet water paddling on lakes, ponds and class I rivers.
Recreational Touring/Touring
Versatile kayaks that offer good stability and easy tracking. The large open cockpits allow easy entry and exit. Kayaks in
this category are designed to efficiently cover long distances and carry large amounts of gear.
Tandem
Our tandem kayaks are stable, maneuverable family fun boats designed for two people and sometimes even more. Ideal
for all-around recreational use – paddling with a companion on lakes, ponds and flat rivers.
Sporting
These kayaks are specifically created with the sportsman/woman in mind. Lightweight and extremely stable, this
category of kayaks is packed with features to make life easier and more enjoyable for its user.

The Kayak In Your Future
Considering a new kayak? Here’s the basic information you need to help you
make an informed decision on what type of kayak is best for you.
BOW (Front)
Length and Width
Carrying
Handle
Hull
Deck Hatch
Cockpit Cord
Deck Rigging
LENGTH: As a rule of thumb, the longer the boat, the faster it will be. It will also
track (go in a straight line) better. A shorter boat tends to be more maneuverable
and is generally lighter and easier to carry. Our Recreational kayaks are on the
short side, to give you more control and stability. Recreational Touring kayaks
are longer, allowing for more speed and plenty of cargo space, with improved
versatility.
WIDTH: The width, or beam, of a kayak is its widest measurement, usually in the
middle. In general, a wider craft is a bit slower but more stable. Fishermen and
photographers prefer wider boats, while paddlers who like to go long distances
choose narrower ones for efficiency and speed.
Kayak Cross Section
Cockpit Rim
Cockpit
Seat
Cockpit Cord
Deck Rigging
The cross section refers to the shape of the sides and the bottom of the kayak.
How the bottom is configured plays a big part in the stability of the kayak.
Flat bottom kayaks are very stable in calmer waters but become less comfortable
as the waves get larger. Shallow arch bottoms feel initially less stable but tend to
be faster and are better behaved in unsettled water.
V-bottoms improve tracking but may have less initial stability. The sides of the
kayak also have importance. Some kayaks curve inward as they come up,
creating a narrower beam at the deck. This enables the paddler to more easily
reach the water while still having the stability of a wider kayak. Other kayaks have
flared sides, meaning the beam increases the deeper it sits in the water providing
more stability as the cargo weight increases. This design provides increased
stability as the kayak is on its side or in unsettled water. Kayaks can also have
straight sides which are a compromise between the two.

Materials
Old Town has been a pioneer in innovative materials for canoes and kayaks
that provide rigidity and resiliency, light weight and long life, attractive looks and
affordable prices. See below to learn more about our full range of paddlesport
materials for every purpose and every budget.
Due to variables in the manufacturing
process and materials, boat weights may
vary +/- 5 lbs. Old Town pursues minimum
boat weights without sacrificing strength,
durability and safety.

Kayak Features and Benefits
Extrasport® XtraComfort™ Outfitting System Seat
Its ‘progressive cushioning effect’ makes this Extrasport® seat soft at first, then becoming
more supportive for all-day paddling. The adjustments are easy to access to provide an
unparalleled level of continuous, uninterrupted comfort. The “Outfitting System” in our
touring and recreational touring models is complete with the addition of foam thigh braces to
give you needed support and control during your day on the water.
Space Hatch™
Our Space Hatch™ leads the market with its easy to open and close advanced cam latch
and 120 degree hinge, which allows easy access to your gear, and a weather tight seal.
Should the hatch accidentally open too wide, it will simply breakaway, rather than damaging
the hinge. If this happens, just pop it back into place.
CrossLock™ Hatch
This hatch is simple to use and the CrossLock™ strapping system across the hatch
offers continuous pressure on all parts of the durable cover to ensure a watertight seal
– comparable to a neoprene cover topped with a hard shell. The extra thick sealing gasket
accommodates surface imperfections and is “self seating” – so you won’t worry about leaky
hatches again.
Stabil-Form™ Hull
This innovative hull design is a proven winner on the market
by providing more efficient stability for our popular Dirigo and
Cayuga kayaks as well as some of the more popular models
of our sister company, Necky® Kayaks. Stability doesn’t mean
“wide”, our design pulls volume further along the length of the
boat for excellent stability. You’ll feel the benefits of this hull
design in your arms and shoulders. It guarantees you a more
efficient paddling experience.
Variable Layer
We created the technologically advanced material, Variable Layer, which is extremely durable and lighter than any singlelayer or three-layer polyethylene constructions on the market today. Enjoy the benefits this material allots you.

Choosing the Canoe for You
As early as 1906, records show that Old Town Canoe Company was producing
200-400 boats per month, a phenomenal number considering the time and laborintensive nature of wood/canvas construction. Our success set off something of
a local boom – by 1910, the town was hailing itself as the Canoe Center of the
World, with 3,500 boats built in Old Town that year.
Over the next several decades, Old Town Canoe thrived and operated at full
capacity in its converted shoe factory near the banks of the Penobscot River.
We reached a major landmark in 2004, with the construction of our one-millionth
boat, which will reside permanently at our offices here in Old Town as a cherished
reminder of our enduring commitment to our customers old and new, and for
generations to come.
To make things easier, we’ve organized our complete line of canoe models into four distinct categories based on
how they function on the water, but if you have any trouble locating what you are looking for, please let us know:
Classic Wood
Old Town began its 100-year history building wood and canvas canoes, and we still make our Wood Classics today to
capture the hand-crafted heritage that takes your canoeing experience back to its roots.
Tripping / Expedition
Expedition canoes are high-volume canoes designed for whitewater and/or carrying large loads. The hull is constructed
for maneuverability, and the deep, flared ends help to maintain dryness. They are built to withstand heavy abuse.
General / Family
These canoes are perfect for people who want to paddle their local lake, pond or quiet river. They are suitable for a wide
variety of on-water activities and though they don’t have performance features like more specialized canoes do, their
Sporting
Our Sporting canoes are designed for a variety of outdoor activities. These platform canoes offer high initial stability and
are versatile enough to be paddled, rowed or motored. In fact, some have square sterns for mounting a motor.

The Canoe In Your Future
Thinking about a new canoe? Here’s the basic information you need to help
you make an informed decision on what type of canoe is best for you.
BOW (Front)
Deck
Nameplate
Gunwale
Length and Width
Length: As a rule of thumb, the longer the boat, the faster it will be. Typically,
it will also have more cargo space, but they’re more difficult to handle in tight
situations.
Width: The width, or beam, of a canoe is its widest measurement, usually in the
middle. Canoe widths are given in two measurements: at the gunwale and at the
four-inch waterline. In general, a wider craft is a bit slower but more stable.
Bottoms and Sides
Bow Seat
FLARED
Flat Bottom boats offer great initial stability.
That is, they feel very secure on calm water.
They’re great
for the sportsman
and
FLARED WITH
TUMBLEHOME
STRAIGHT
TUMBLEHOME
recreational paddler looking
for steadiness.
FLAT BOTTOM
ROUND BOTTOM
SHALLOW ARCH
Round Bottom canoes are designed for speed and efficiency, with better
secondary stability. They have the ability to balance on their side when leaned.
Carrying
Yoke
Hull
Aft Thwart
Shallow Arch bottom canoes have less initial stability and good secondary
stability.
The sides of the canoe can
have flare, tumblehome, or
be straight.
FLARED
TUMBLEHOME
STRAIGHT
FLARED WITH
TUMBLEHOME
Flared sheds water well and increases secondary stability. Tumblehome gives a
narrower beam at the gunwales and allows for easier paddling.
Straight-sided canoes split the difference between the two.
Flared with Tumblehome incorporates the best of both, giving good secondary
stability and easy paddling.
Stern Seat
Rocker
Serial No.
Location
STERN (Rear)
The curve of the keel line (its bottom profile)
from bow to stern is called rocker. A straight
keel line has no rocker, providing exceptional
tracking ability but lacking maneuverability.
An extremely rockered keel line offers
exceptional maneuverability but will not track well. Moderately rockered canoes
are usually straight with a rise toward the ends. Most general recreational canoes
have a moderate rocker.

between durability, weight, price and
other factors, refer to the chart to the
right. For further materials info visit us at:

Old Town Wooden Canoes
Wood and canvas canoes first appeared in the late 1800s, gaining favor as a more durable, lower-maintenance alternative to the Native American
birch bark designs. While the wood and canvas canoes’ rich history dates back over a century, they are hardly a thing of the past. Today there are
a number of societies and associations dedicated to these boats and they remain a favorite among aficionados and select professionals.
Throughout the century, hundreds of thousands of canoes have been produced here

at Old Town. The classic wood and canvas canoe is our heritage. It is what defines us.
Our celebrated one-millionth boat, started in 2003 and completed in 2005, is a wood
Fiberglass only
and fiberglass model based on our traditional OTCA hull. All of our classic wood canoes
are hand-crafted on forms that have been used for generations. As with any hand-crafted
work of art, our canoes take time. Available options include: Half ribs, Outside stems, Rub-rails, Full-length stem band, Painter rings. Keel is standard.

KORU
Advancing Tradition with the Koru
The Koru™ marks Old Town’s return to high-end materials and a step forward in canoe design.
By blending the performance features of Native American hunting canoes with aerospace composite
technology and modern design features Old Town is producing a new breed of stable, lightweight
performance canoes.
Each year the Koru is offered in a limited edition wood trimmed model, along with our lighter weight
the aluminum trimmed advanced composite material (ACM) version. Our infusion process allows us
to optimize the resin to material ratio for optimal weight and strength, as well as produce dynamic
features not possible using wooden frame or plastic hull construction. The Koru’s tumblehome,
dramatic recurve, and fine entry and exit points, make the Koru a quick and comfortable canoe
which maximizes your enjoyment by minimizing your effort while both on the water, and off.

• Advanced Composite for lighter weight
• Sliding bow seat
• Contoured carrying yoke
• Aluminum gunwales and thwart
• Composite deck
• Floatation chambers capable of

CHARLES RIVER
“It is extremely graceful in appearance and very steady, combining beauty in outline with speed and ease of paddling.” That’s how Old Town’s
1903 catalog described our then-new Charles River canoe, and we believe those words ring just as true today. The Charles River combines
yesterday’s classic design, flared with tumblehome cross-section and contemporary materials to provide performance with greater durability and
less weight, giving intermediate to advanced paddlers a canoe that matches the ‘ideal canoe’ picture in their minds with performance they’ve
dreamed of.

OSPREY (140 Row and 155 Row)
If you’re looking for a lightweight, stable sporting canoe with excellent durability, the Osprey 140 is the canoe for you. Easy to handle both in and
out of the water, we built this boat with an arched bottom to make it more stiff without adding more weight. Four standard oar sockets means it
may be rowed from the bow or center seat.
