Outrigger Wholesale Canoe Program

The water category your guests haven't seen yet.

For hotels and resorts.
For marinas and rental outfitters.
For waterfront camps and youth programs.

Single canoes from $1,000. Full fleet packages under $12,000. No boating license required.

Outrigger canoes were never rental-friendly. Until now.

Kayaks, SUPs, pedal boats. Every waterfront stocks the same lineup. Outrigger canoes are the one commercial watercraft category that's never been available at rental-friendly prices.

Competition-grade single canoes run $4,600 and up. Six-person club canoes cost $20,000 or more. We build outrigger canoes for commercial use starting at $1,000.

They also look like nothing else on the water. Kids see Moana. Adults see Pacific Island culture and a craft that's been raced for centuries. Six people paddling in sync on a canoe with an outrigger creates a rich experience - visual - beyond a technicolor row of kayaks on a beach.

Whether you run a resort beach, a marina dock, or a camp waterfront, the economics work the same: new equipment category, no direct competition from the operator next door.

Sunrise paddles. Group excursions.
A guest experience that photographs itself.

License

No Splash

You're not buying a cool canoe. You're adding a guest activity program with a strong revenue line that runs everyday your waterfront is open. No boating license required. Outrigger canoes are non-motorized slow craft. Same regulatory category as kayaks. No special permits for operators or guests. Double-hull option means it won't flip. The V6 Rooster can be rigged with outriggers on both sides. With life vests, inexperienced guests stay dry.

Ships to both coasts, Hawaii, and Pacific Rim. Containers to Seattle, LA, Florida, New Jersey, Hawaii direct. International to Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, Philippines.

The Math

These are Tahitian heavy fiberglass canoes built to absorb daily rental use. Not carbon fiber racing shells that crack when a guest looks at them wrong.

Outrigger canoes command premium rates because there's no comparison point. Guests have a reference price for kayaks and SUPs. They don't have one for a six-person outrigger. A guided sunrise paddle or a team-building excursion package prices significantly higher than hourly kayak rentals, and guests expect that.

Most operators we work with build packages rather than straight hourly rentals. Guided group paddles, sunrise experiences, corporate outings. Our team will help you design packages that fit your property and your guest mix.

Frequently Asked Questions

What about maintenance?

Rinse with fresh water after saltwater use. Store out of direct sun when not in use. That's it. These are heavy fiberglass built for daily commercial rotation, not carbon racing shells.

What's the minimum order?

No minimum. You can start with a single OC1 at $1,250 to test the concept. Most operators find that 4 singles plus 1 six-person covers a full program.

How do we train staff and guests?

We offer a digital paddling education course taught by a champion Tahitian coach who won the Molokai Channel race. Available as a staff training tool or a guest add-on. AI-translated versions in Japanese and other languages for international properties.

What's the shipping timeline?

Canoes ship via container to Seattle, LA/Long Beach, Florida, New Jersey, and Hawaii direct. Pacific Rim destinations (Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, Philippines) ship from China origin. Contact us for a freight quote and estimated delivery to your location.
