Lavieille 17.6
The Lavieille 17.6 is a large volume canoe that David Yost designed to Algonquin Outfitters specific needs for a 3 person tripping canoe. The ends have been flared out above the waterline allowing for the bow and stern seats to be placed closer to their respective ends creating much more space in the middle of the canoe. The center seat is placed behind the yoke and has the sides tucked in for ease of paddling for the center paddler. This creates lots of space in front of the yoke for gear, dogs and other passengers. While it has been designed as a 3 adult touring canoe, the Lavieille is also the perfect family boat!

Fabulous Tripping Canoe
My first time in the Lavielle, was a tandem trip this September. It was a friend’s canoe, in the expedition Kevlar layup. We did 200 miles in the BWCA, along the border route. It paddled beautifully, with a nice glide, and good speed. It was roomy and comfortable, on long days. We had a variety of weather from glassy calm to whitecaps, and crosswinds. A very confidence inspiring canoe.
