A LONGER, BEAMIER SPITFIRE

The SpitFire 13 is a slightly larger version of our original 12-foot SpitFire.  At 13′ and 29″ max beam, it can carry a bit more gear, dog, or person.  Rock solid in weather and very efficient, this boat is fun on flatwater as well as moving water.

Paddled with a single or double blade paddle, it can carry a week’s worth of gear for your next backcountry pond-hopping adventure.  Or, pop it off the car top and head out for an after work, evening paddle.
