Jensen: The Ultimate Ski-to-Sea Recreational Class Canoe – 18' Jensen dominated the UCSA Marathon canoe championships for many years. It tracks straight and has great glide between strokes, making the 18' Jensen faster in straight ahead events and paddling. The 18' Jensen can also handle longer trips by people who are small or pack light. Its length provides surprising volume and buoyancy for a slim, low canoe.
When Canoe & Kayak Magazine tested this hull, they said, "Few canoes match the smooth paddling performance of this one. The shallow-arch hull blends efficiency with enough stability to reassure newer paddlers. It's both stable and quick. I'd rate the 18' Jensen as one of the finest canoes I've ever paddled."

Depth: Bow - 17", Center – 12½", Stern 16". Width: Maximum – 34 1/8",
Gunwale – 33", Waterline 32 1/8". Rocker: Minimal.
