Old Town Discovery Sport 15 SS
This Model Has Been Discontinued - We Recommend Looking At The Enigma Canoes Square Stern 126
The Old Town Discovery Sport 15 SS has long been one of the most popular square stern open canoes on the market. Combining comfort with performance and stability, the Discovery Sport 15 SS is a popular choice for many water sport enthusiasts in fishing and hunting circles but also those who enjoy photography or just need a spacious canoe but don't want to be paddling and would prefer to use an outboard motor. Alternatively, you can even purchase an oar lock kit that will allow you to row the Discovery Sport 15 SS as well.
The SS in Old Town Discovery Sport 15 SS stands for Square Stern. This is the flat section at the rear of the boat that is specifically designed to have a small petrol or electric outboat motor clamped to it securely. There is plenty of space to store a battery or small fuel tank and still leave room for several passengers. Indeed the Discovery Sport 15 SS has 3 full seats and a carrying capacity of close to 400kg's so you're not likely to run out or space very quickly at all.
Constructed from hard-wearing three-layer polyethylene, the Discovery Sport 15 SS is much sturdier than some other models of square stern canoe, it retains its' shape when loaded and on the water and can take the normal wear and tear you get moving a canoe on and off the water with no problem.
The Old Town Discovery Sport 15 SS is a wide open canoe but it can still be car topped and carried on a roofrack, although a trailer does make things a whole lot easier. Moving this canoe to the water is also possible by hand thanks to the comfortable and well-placed carrying handles but a canoe trolley is a great addition and may well enhance your enjoyment both on and off the water.
Other open canoes can be powered by a small outboard motor using a transom motor mount that clamps to the gunwales of your canoe with the engine then sitting over the side. The battery or fuel tank then sits on the floor of the canoe. See our range of Minn Kota Electric Outboard Motors and Electric Outboard Accessories page for the motor mount.
