I’ve owned this boat for about three months. It is a great river boat and a good flat water boat. We recently took it for two days of whitewater canoeing and the boat was nimble and responsive. On flat water the boat paddles easily but, as expected, requires a bit more input than my Clipper Tripper.

Most awesome canoe. I am a 5'1" woman and this canoe fits me like a glove. I can lift and haul it anywhere, love soloing this baby. Had it in the shop 3 times now, my own fault, and it came out to be back in the water again and again. The Scout just won't die....I love it!! Awesome job Bob!!

I bought my first Hellman canoe back in 2007.... it was a scout. This little beast is tuffer than nails yet light enough for this little 110 lb gal to lift around on my own. I love the independence of this baby, paddling where, when and how on my own terms.... this is hard to get with most canoes, but not my Scout!!

I rented a Hellman Scout for a 5-day solo trip on Bowron Lakes. It was a performer in the wind, running the "Chute" and on calm lake and moving river. I kept up with kayakers and other tandem paddlers and highly recommend this gem. Produced by Bob Hellman in Nelson, BC. I've got one on order!
