Sailing, fishing or just messing around, you want to stay rightside up. But you have limited time, space and patience, so your canoe stabilizer has to be simple, strong, versatile, convenient and highly effective. Our amas (floats) slide in, out, up and down and lock where you want them. Canoe stabilizer clamps onto any canoe in just a few minutes. Same clamp-on crossbar accepts wheels, sail mast, leeboards, bench, rowing outriggers -- that's versatility. These are the key attributes of our canoe stabilizer: Adjustability, installability, portability, durability, versatility, stay-right-side-up-ability!

Outriggers with Hydrodynamic float. |
Choose Your Size: The telescoping float arms slide in and out of fixed center section ("crossbar"). Crossbar has two square tubes running through it to receive the float arms. The crossbar is the part that clamps across your canoe. Choose a crossbar length long enough to span your canoe, or longer. For canoes with outside gunwale lips (Coleman, Pelican, Lincoln) oversize by at least 4 inches to allow clamps to go on outside. Standard crossbar lengths are 30", 36", 40" and 45" or for $10 extra, we'll do a custom length (pay the $10 click here). Email Jim@SailboatsToGo.com after ordering to specify length. Or, click here to order from a page where each size and float style is listed as a separate item and then no email will be necessary. You can even take care of international shipping there. If you have a Mad River Adventure, please tell us so we can send special clamps.

| Standing in a canoe is inherently dangerous, but a lot less dangerous with our stabilizer. |
For sailing and motoring, the Hydrodynamic style of float is best. It's more streamlined, stronger and has 15% more bouyancy. |
Wide Stance: The telescoping float arms extend 22" out from the crossbar on each side when fully extended. So, if you get a 40" crossbar, total span is 7 feet (40" 22" 22" = 84" = 7'). Wide span multiplies bouyancey of the floats through leverage. But you don't have to fully extend. Float arms also lock at 15" extension point (total 70" with 40" crossbar).
Dimensions, materials, weight: The Ethafoam floats are 6 inches in diameter and 26" long. They are solid, closed-cell resilient foam that won't absorb water, crack, split or shatter even in cold weather. The Hydrodynamic floats are 42" long x 6" max. width & depth. They are hollow, rigid, high-impact plastic. Weight for the whole system is about 9 lbs. for the Ethafoam stabilizer; or 16 lbs for the Hydrodynamic stabilizer. Broken down, either style fits in a bag we sell that measures just 48" x 7" x 9", and that includes the crossbar, the arms & both floats, all in that one little bag. Metal parts are anodized aluminum and stainless steel. Nothing to rust.
Popular & Proven: Both styles have enjoyed great market success and customer satisfaction over years. These are the identical canoe outriggers sold by Cabela's, Spring Creek (Canoe Gear), Castle Craft, etc.
"Jim,
I received the outriggers and they work great—truly sweet! "
-- Thom E. June 2010 (bought ethafoam type)

Versatility - The stabilizer crossbar is actually the heart of a whole system of canoe accessories. It's on your canoe, it's strong, it's got 2 tubes in it that things can slide into and holes to engage spring buttons, so why not put it to work in more ways? Like wheels for land transport, leeboards to keep you going straight even in crosswinds, a downwind "spirit sail", a full upwind sail rig that make your canoe a fully operational sailboat, rowing attachment, motor mount, seat that goes on top, etc. Links:
