Overview
The Solitude provides versatility for a wide range of solo paddlers. As with all Jensen designed canoes, it is fast and tracks well. It is harder to turn than the Packer but responds well when leaned.
The seat is adjustable fore and aft, allowing for adjustments to the canoe’s trim. The paddler is also able to adjust the height of the seat. The lowest setting naturally provides the most stability, and is recommended for novice use. The middle height seat position is most commonly used. For training or competition, place the seat in the top position. Adjustments to the height of the seat must be done while on shore. The Solitude will keep up with most tandem canoes and is well suited for wilderness tripping.

Solitude is Fast and Fun.
I have had this boat in fiber-glass for 20 years or so. It is super fast and I can easily keep up with tandem canoes. It carries enough weight for tripping and tracks well, yet turns easily especially when leaned. With a spray deck and low ends it handles super well in a wind. Not a designated white water play boat but it will handle moderate white water when tripping. Best for a paddler with a bit of weight (140 and up) as it's not a dainty boat and responds well to a load.
