Support Maine Coast Outrigging Canoe Club
Donation protected
Maine Coast Outrigging Canoe Club is Portland’s newest paddling club, uniting our water-loving communities, celebrating movement, and sharing in the love of the ocean. As a new club, we are fundraising to obtain our first (of many) canoes, which will range from singles to 6-seat canoes.
Outrigging canoes are ocean-going vessels originally developed in the South Pacific to move from island to island. The design and shape of these canoes, with an outrigger for support through waves and swell, is ideal for the conditions of Casco Bay and Maine’s open ocean. Maine is home to water-loving folks who appreciate and respect the ocean in all its strength and beauty, and outrigging canoe paddling is one of the best ways to enjoy the ocean while connecting with a team of neighbors and friends. Ideal for all ages and abilities!
Help us kick off our goal of obtaining an OC1 this Fall 2024, and a range of canoes including an OC6 by Spring 2025. With this first canoe, we’ll be able to begin phase one of our club, to educate, train, and spread the passion for outrigging!
Join us to paddle, to donate, and to meet monthly as we build our Ohana!
Aloha!
