Our clamp-on folding canoe sail kit will fit any canoe, not just Coleman and Old Town. The Coleman canoe (green one in the video) is very inexpensive, but it still sails well. It's a bit tippier than some, but the stabilizer floats counteract that very well. The Old Town (red one) is more stable and has a very solid feel, probably because it's heavier.
This is a Coleman 15'. The Old Town canoe in the video is an Old Town Discovery 17-foot.
