Name your Palette: Description: Carbon (graphite) fibre is only marginally less durable than KEVLAR® and creates a hull that’s a little stiffer than KEVLAR®. While there are some concerns with our competitors’ carbon hulls being a little on the brittle side, ours is not. Epoxy resin makes our canoes significantly tougher, and having KEVLAR® backing up our carbon outer fabric ensures that you needn’t be concerned about durability. Carbon fibre fabrics are more expensive than KEVLAR® but, if you want the ultimate in lightweight strength, the additional cost is well worth it. http://www.sourisriver.com
