Bell Whitewater & Specialty Models

Bell Canoe Works is one of the few companies making new forays into whitewater canoe design. These whitewater and specialty boats make Bell's offerings one of the widest in today's market.

Prodigy
Length:11' 7" Width:29" Weight:42lbs Capacity:550lbs

A great new solo whitewater canoe design from Bob Foote and Dave Yost, the Prodigy is a boat made to do it all and do it well. Small enough for good surfing and playing, but long enough to have decent speed and tracking, the Prodigy excels in nearly all downriver boating situations. Flare in the bow help keep waves out of the boat, and a harder chine aft than forward gives the ability to carve turns without getting too edgy. Available with wood or vinyl trim; factory outfitted with pedestal, pads and straps or un-outfitted.

Nexus
Length:14' 4" Width:33" Weight:50lbs Capacity:850lbs

Bell's new tandem whitewater canoe, the Nexus, incorporates the features and innovations found in the Prodigy, but in a hull scaled for two. It is a great tandem playboat and river runner, and outfitted for solo paddling, is an excellent whitewater river tripper. Optional factory outfitting, pictured above.

Rob-Roy
Length:15' Width:28.5" Weight:31-35lbs Capacity:550lbs

The Rob Roy has a cult following of paddlers who enjoy its common sense approach to travel across the water. It offers superior stability with a low seat. The open cockpit accepts standard packs and allows canoe-style portage. Rob Roy provides the best of both worlds. Now available in a Rob Roy 12 footer. An amazing 26-31lbs.
