The Tarang Kala (Kala = art) brings creativity and individuality onto the water. Built on the same strong, lightweight fiberglass hull as our Tarang base model, this edition adds hand-crafted artwork and custom finishes that transform each canoe into a unique piece.
The colors are made with PU paints, which keep the canoe safe from the sun and protect it from scratches. This means your canoe will look bright and last long, even with regular use. Strong like the base Tarang model but more colorful, Tarang Kala is made for families, resorts, and anyone who wants a canoe that is both useful and beautiful.

Stable and safe, Tarang Shakti is designed for two adults plus gear, making it perfect for fishing trips, family outings, or use at camps and resorts.

How we work
At Kuse Boatworks, our canoes are built with an engineer’s precision and a craftsman’s care.
Every hull begins as a CAD model, then becomes reality through CNC-cut pieces like a puzzle. This ensures:
perfect left-right symmetry
accurate rocker and hull curves
consistent performance across all canoes
From this foundation, our team hand-lays fiberglass to create a strong, lightweight structure. Each canoe is then finished through a careful process of fairing, sanding, priming, and coating — all done by skilled hands.
We combine digital accuracy with handcrafted finish to deliver canoes that paddle straighter, track better, and last longer.
Designed and built in India. Made for real adventure.
Canoes vs Kayaks
While kayaks are narrow and built for speed, canoes are designed for stability and space. A canoe allows you to sit higher, move in and out easily, and carry more gear — making it ideal for families, campers, and beginners who want comfort and confidence on the water.
Our fiberglass canoes combine this natural stability with lightweight strength and durability, offering a safer and more versatile alternative to kayaks. Whether for leisure, fishing, or exploration, they give you more freedom without sacrificing safety or style.
