About Old Town
Old Town has a long tradition of innovative technology, dating back to 1898, when the company built its first wood-and-canvas canoe, based on a Native American birch bark design. In 1940, the company rendered the traditional seal-skin kayak design in more durable wood-and-canvas, and later introduced lightweight fiberglass models in the '50s.

Today, Old Town continually strives to advance the art of paddling through design improvements and lighter, more durable materials, such as three-layer polyethylene and Superlinear technologies. The Dirigo 106 offers stability, speed, and comfort in a short manueverable kayak. The Old Town Stabil-Form hull is ideally suited for beginner and intermediate paddlers for use in a wide range of paddling situations. The Dirigo 106 offers comfortable seating, a fully appointed dashboard, deck bungee, and Old Town's revolutionary Click Seal hatch. Sized perfectly for small to mid-sized paddlers, the Dirigo 106 will accommdate up to 250-300 lbs.
