Nymph is a small double paddle canoe of my own design. Construction is basswood and walnut strips covered with fiberglass on the outside and carbon/kevlar cloth on the inside.
Nymph is 10 feet long and weights 15 lbs. It will easily carry a 150 lb paddler
Nymph is quite stable and easy to handle on the water.
Because it weighs so little, it is easy to carry to the launch

I designed Nymph as a modern take on the Rushton canoe Sairy Gamp. It is small and easy handle on and off the water
