The CHEROKEE 500 is one of the most stable and easiest to manoeuvre recreational canoes, that we build. It is best used as a double or family canoe. It can easily handle up to 4 adults or a family with a large amount of equipment. It is the best choice for safe and relaxing trips. The wide beam, with a flat bottomed hull, provides an ideal platform for photography and fishing.
CARBON-ULTRALIGHTWEIGHT CONSTRUCTION
The easiest way to experience a GATZ CANOE! High-tech fiber composite systems such as those used in aircraft construction and motorsports find their way into canoeing here. Carrying distances or charging are child's play thanks to weight savings of approx. 35%. You will also notice the difference on the water. In the ultralight series, some of the aramid fibers are replaced by high-strength carbon fibers. Accordingly, weight can be dispensed with through additional reinforcements. We recommend this series for use on lakes and unblocked streams, even though it can certainly handle more. Visually, the attractive anthracite-colored carbon fabric with the transparent gelcoat, visible layers and transitions characterizes this design. All other composite colors can also be selected as custom-made products, depending on the color pigment density (dark colors and mottled colors are an advantage here, as well as the size of the canoe, the thicker colored gelcoat layer can mean an additional weight of 1-2kg).
