& video Al & Ingrid Wiegand, WA "...Yesterday, we were on Cloud 9! It was our 45th
wedding anniversary, and with our dog, Leo, we paddled silently
among the song birds on a beautiful little lake on the Olympic
Peninsula.
The Heron and our graphite paddles made it the most delightful
experience we could hope for... Getting the boat onto and
off the vehicle was so easy... We were as happy as kids at
a birthday party..." Paddle kayak- or canoe-style...

Heron 17 R Multi-Use Craft: Rowing, Paddling,
Sailing
Featherweight Kevlar/Graphite Construction
Heron
17 R is one of Easy Rider's most popular rowing trainers...
and for good reason! Its 825-pound capacity and 17-foot length
allow it to be rowed with one or two Oarmasters.
Whether you row solo by yourself, row with a companion as a
passenger, or row double with a partner, this boat maintains
excellent glide.
Heron 17 R is a stable and seaworthy all-weather rower equally
at home on lakes, rivers, and saltwater. Best of all, this Kevlar®/Graphite
featherweight is easy to cartop and portage by a single person.
That means the Heron will get lots of spur-of the-moment use
for daily exercise and relaxation close to home.
Heron 17 R features
the design & handling characteristics of our Raven
17, but has a lower profile and a sharper bow/stern.
Heron 17 R is also a highly popular
tripping canoe... Whether you want a canoe for day tripping,
weekend campouts, or extended lightweight camping trips, the
Heron is an excellent choice.
The Heron's featherweight Kevlar®/Graphite construction
with an Airex foam core weighs a mere 42 pounds, making solo
portages a breeze. If your path to the water involves steep
trails, stairs, or a slippery beach, you will be glad you chose
our Heron 17 R!
