Description

2022 Slipstream Watercraft Wee Lassie The Wee Lassie combines the advantages of a kayak with the strong points of a canoe. A blend of comfort, form, and function designed to provide the ultimate paddling experience. Weighing between 9-15 pounds depending on hull laminate choice, carrying the Wee Lassie over long distances isn't an issue and neither is loading or off-loading from a vehicle. With depth options of 10-13 inches, Slipstream Watercraft can precisely match personal size and load requirements. The Wee Lassie's hull is pleasantly maneuverable on the tiniest streams yet tracks extremely well on open water. John Henry Rushton designed the canoe to be paddled with a double blade (kayak style) which offers many advantages such as easier control, greater speed, and less fatigue. Slipstream's Wee Lassie is a faithful replica of Rushton's Wee Lassie.
