Free Demos & Price Matching

At Charles River, every day is demo day! Drop by for free demos of any boat we sell. We will also match any advertised price on boats and paddles.
If you are looking for a used kayak for whitewater or surf, Charles River Canoe & Kayak occasionally carries used boats at great prices.

Browse our list and come down for a free test-paddle! If you are looking for a boat from these manufacturers which does not appear on this list, we are happy to special-order it. Be sure to check out our great deals on kayak and canoe packages.

Specials deals are in red and also show the list price. $Call means our price is too low to show — call (617) 965-5110! Boats that are new this year are in orange.

Quantities and styles are limited. Prices and boat availability are subject to change without notice — call us to confirm availability if you are looking for a specific boat. All used and rental boat sales are final.

Boats are for sale at our Newton Boathouse. Get up to 15% off all paddling gear when you buy a boat! Click here for information on boat shipping.
