Pleasure
The Pleasure is built on the same mould as the Cruiser, as a result, it has all the same shapes, dimensions, and paddling characteristics. The only differences are that it is built shallower, at 12" center depth, and the sheer line has a little more "upturn" at the ends in the classic Chestnut/Peterborough style. This canoe is a modest size tandem making it ideal for day/weekend tripping or for the cottage.
No photos available, so far we've only been asked to build the Cruiser version.
