Easy to load and portage even on your own, a canoe will bring you to many places that a heavier less nimble hull would have a hard time traversing. It,ll carry two adults with gear with buoyancy to spare. Canoes track well and are easy to paddle- learn the course correcting J stroke to keep a good line of travel. The elevated seating allows you to stretch your legs and change seating position, even stand to stretch.
Canoes are easy to secure to your roof and are light (36kls.) Another advantage is, toll fees stay at class1.
Stuff to bring:
Lifevest
Paddles
Anchor with line
Provisions (food, water)
Gear- anything you don't want wet should go in a dry bag
So if you're exploring rivers, lakes or any calm waters, consider a canoe as your ultimate cartop buddy
