Welcome to the fundraising campaign for our newest and most technically advanced ultralight canoe, the "Hydra." This new boat is designed for speed (it's even 20 pounds lighter than our other 140lb ultralight models), comfort (new seat and foot designs) and safety (new cockpit designs for easier entry and exits). Finally, the new Hydra design can be configured in the future as double-hull ultralights - an investment in a faster future for our V12 paddlers and racers over the years ahead.

FGPC needs to raise $15,000 in donated funds from generous paddlers before 31 March in order to complete the purchase of this state-of-the-art canoe. Please consider donating $100, $500, $1000 or $5000 for this new racing boat, with an expected delivery in April of this year. Once again, FGPC will match every dollar raised in order to reach a total purchase price of $35,000.
