Banook Canoe Club and Bear Mountain Boats Featured on CBC News
All through the winter, Ted worked hard on a series of several C15s. That effort is paying off now as the finished war canoes ship out to clubs across Canada. Banook Canoe Club of Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, scooped one, and their purchase was covered by CBC News.
Banook's new canoe will arrive in late May 2017. While their club is the focus, the article also discusses the important of sprint racing in Canada. We're proud of our boats, and of the sprint paddlers who make this such a compelling, uniquely Canadian sport. Thanks again to Banook and here's wishing them many years of happy paddling!
