Description

2022 12' Slipstream Watercraft Wee Lassie A canoe for all reasons (excluding whitewater), the light weight of the Wee Lassie makes carrying it over long distances no issue, and neither is loading or off-loading it from your vehicle! A reproduction of a historic J. H. Ruston ultralight craft, Rushton was arguably the finest canoe designer of all time. The hull is pleasantly maneuverable on the tiniest of streams, yet it tracks extremely well on open water. Rushton designed the canoe to be paddled with a double blade (kayak style) The Wee Lassie combines the advantages of a kayak with the strong points of a canoe.
