Our Saganaga was mentored by the Chestnut Cruiser. I lessened the rocker to make it track better when not loaded and increased the initial stability while keeping the sublime gentle sweep of the sheer line. This canoe is a very nice wilderness tripping canoe. It is efficient under paddle and extremely seaworthy - ready to tackle a day paddle or a wilderness adventure over any lake or river.
Straight sides, 1-1/2" of rocker with a shallow arched hull.
"I
truly love my "Sag". We really like it for wilderness tripping,
and it works just fine for day paddles on the rivers around here". |

The
Saganaga is named for Saganaga Lake at the end of the Gunflint Trail,
which runs from Grand Marais, Minnesota to this border lake, a major entry
into the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Known for its big water,
this lake requires a seaworthy canoe to carry supplies along the border
route or across to Cache Bay and into the Quetico Provincial Park.
