Sunnyside Cruiser
| Developed by Walter Dean in 1910 for use in the
Lake Ontario waters off Sunnyside Beach, Toronto, this fast, efficient cruiser often
doubled as a "girling" canoe. It was so popular that it soon accounted for
90 percent of Dean's business. Narrow, with plumb sides and a shallow vee hull, it
cuts through flatwater neatly. |
| Graceful yet jaunty, it has the
"Dean" elevated decks with a coaming to sweep aside spray. Advertised as
"the handsomest canoe in the world, " it is the ultimate in a luxurious,
easy-paddling recteational canoe. |
