The Gumotex Baraka Inflatable Canoe is a high-performance, two-seater river canoe built to handle extreme whitewater conditions.
With a self-bailing bottom, stiff hull, and pronounced rocker, this canoe is designed to conquer rapids, steep drops, and large waves.
Often referred to as a " canoe raft" by professional river guides, it delivers the perfect mix of stability, buoyancy, and maneuverability .
A canoe is a lightweight, narrow watercraft, typically open on top and propelled by single-bladed paddles.
Unlike traditional canoes, the Gumotex Baraka is an inflatable canoe built for whitewater adventures. It is designed for Class IV rapids and is perfect for those who crave the thrill of challenging waters.
Despite its intended use, the Baraka is great for all skill levels. Beginners will appreciate its stability and forgiving design, while seasoned paddlers love its maneuverability and performance in rough conditions.
Whether you are navigating technical rapids or enjoying a multi-day river tour, this canoe is built to perform and last.
The Gumotex Baraka takes on Class IV rapids like a pro.
The self-bailing bottom drains water fast, so you stay drier while charging through waves. Meanwhile, its pronounced rocker helps you glide over drops instead of nosediving into them.
Whether you are weaving through technical rapids or tackling massive waves, this canoe gives you the confidence to push your limits.
The Baraka is perfect for extended river journeys, with ample space for passengers and gear. Its adjustable seating lets paddlers distribute weight efficiently, improving balance and comfort.
Additionally, its durable NITRILON® construction ensures reliability in rugged environments, making it an excellent choice for long-distance paddling trips.
Unlike traditional hard-shell canoes, the Baraka is lightweight and compact when deflated. It folds down into a waterproof transport bag , making it easy to carry and store.
The push-push valve system allows for quick inflation and deflation, so you can get on the water in no time.
While built for whitewater, the Baraka also performs well on calm rivers and lakes with pond fountains or gentle streams. The self-bailing floor, which keeps the interior dry, can be closed for flatwater paddling.
Its high buoyancy and sturdy build also make it versatile for different paddling adventures.
The Baraka is designed with safety in mind. The side tubes provide excellent buoyancy, while the thigh straps and safety clasps ensure paddlers stay secure in rough waters.
In addition, the canoe’s low center of gravity enhances stability, thus reducing the risk of capsizing even in challenging conditions.
The Gumotex Baraka is not just another inflatable canoe—it is built to withstand rapids, rocks, and unpredictable currents easily.
