Nova Craft Prospector 15 SP3 Canoe
The Toughest 15ft Canoe
The Nova Craft Prospector 15 is the ultimate 15ft all rounder canoe. With its shallow curved hull the Prospector 15 gives great initial stability for both the new and experienced paddler. The slight rocker gives the boat great agility meaning it’s a great all rounder, and suitable for taking you, a friend and your picnic lunch or your pet out for the day around the local waterways or on flat water rivers, but it’s also at home running through white water rapids.
With nice high sides the Prospector 15 will deflect water giving a drier ride than other canoes even in bigger waves and rapids. With a symmetrical design front to back this boat is easy to paddle as both solo or as a tandem crew.
The Prospector 15 SP3 has plenty of room for 2 paddlers and some kit for an overnight camp etc, although if you wanted a boat so you can go on longer trips or expedition adventures we would recommend the Nova Craft Prospector 16 SP3 or Prospector 17 SP3.

Hull Material - SP3 Polyethylene
The Prospector 15 SP3 hull is made by roto-molding three layers of superlinear polyethylene powder. The two outer layers are solid with a foam core middle layer. SP3 canoes are extremely strong and are an excellent choice for river use or general recreational use.
Nova Craft's Canadian made SP3 is regarded by many as the toughest polyethylene canoes on the market.
Prospector 15 SP3 - Outfitter Model
The Prospector 15 SP3 is a popular choice for commercial operators, schools and canoe clubs due to the build quality and durability.
Whilst the standard wood/webbed seats from Nova Craft are very strong and used by many operators, we also offer the "Outfitter" version of the Prospector 15 SP3 with super strong plastic seats.
