This is a second-quality Tennessean canoe in the Gooseberry color scheme with Kevlar + Carbon Fiber layup, and Walnut Ribs and Trim, with ash seats and yoke. Black lines aren't as tidy as we'd like, but this canoe is still a showstopper.

The 14.5’ Tennessean is a canoe that can do a bit of everything. While a two-seater, it handles as comfortably solo as tandem. Spacious enough for two people to take a weekend trip, it can also be heavily loaded for long solo trips where resupply comes few and far between. It offers better maneuverability and speed than the Osprey, while sacrificing only a little stability.
Weighing 45 pounds, the Tennessean is straightforward to transfer into and out of the water whether solo or as a pair. Carbon-fiber, Kevlar, and Fiberglass are all laid up together strike a canny balance of weight and durability, then reinforced with cherry ribs for added strength and rigidity. Hardwood appointments, including the gunnels, seats, and thwart are rounded out with a striking gel-coat painted finish that is sure to impress both on and off the water.
