Lightweight And Tough

I got this canoe because I wanted a lightweight two person canoe that I could handle myself if I had to as a female. I also do a fair bit of portaging. The canoe is stable, durable, and comfortable. A great all around canoe. I've done my fair bit of "rock painting" (when the canoe scraps against a rock, leaving behind some green) and the canoe is very durable, a work horse! I feel very safe in it.

~30 Yrs Old 158 Tough As Nails!

Just bought ~30 yrs old 158 on EBay… It is in incredible shape. Perfect for Colorado streams & ponds for fly-fishing

Very Good All-round Canoe

We were a little biased toward Old Town products after getting a pair of Old Town kayaks a few years ago. This canoe is is well-made, stable, and very durable so far. Maybe a little on the heavy side, but for a general-purpose canoe, the Discovery 158 was the best value we could find. Not as sleek or light as more expensive canoes, but a good choice for recreational paddlers. Delivery from Old Town was timely and the canoe arrived in perfect condition.

Maiden Voyage

This Old Town Discovery made her first voyage last week. I broke a Corona over her bow christening her Endurance, and the first voyage was a 210 mile journey on the New River from Ashe NC to Sandstone WV. Rapids, portages, long stretches of empty miles all presented their own factors that the canoe overcame.

Excellent Canoe!

This canoe is exactly what I wanted. The color is perfect. Shipping was seamless. I needed to delay the ship date by a day due to work commitment and the shipping company was easy to work with. It doea come on an eighteen wheeler so keep that in mind. The canoe came wrapped in double plastic with cardboard surrounding the sensitive areas. No damage at all and Old Town communicated everything as needed. Can't wait to go,paddle around!
