Our Team
Florian
Florian is a real world traveller. He especially loves different food and cultures. Even though he loves exploring other countries, somehow he always ends up back in Berlin. In his hometown, he especially appreciates the green areas, numerous canals and the small and big lakes.
His Berlin tip: Bathing at night in the lake Krumme Lanke. You can’t find a more beautiful sky of stars anywhere else.
Trapper 490
We have to admit: The Trapper 490 is our most important employee. Easy handling and an extremely high tilting stability characterize the 4-seat Canadian. Additionally, the long water line ensures a fast travelling speed and a good directional stability even for untrained paddlers. Due to its strong manufacturing the canoe is ideal for beginners and tour paddlers.
Pedro
Whenever Pedro is not busy with painting in his art studio, he is either training Capoeira or exploring a new canoe trail in Northern Brandenburg – his favourite area in the surroundings of Berlin. Living in the capital, the native Brazilian enjoys the tolerant and open-minded atmosphere in the city the most.
His Berlin tip: Turn night into day at the nightclub ‘Watergate’. The view onto the Spree and Oberbaum Bridge through the glass walls is spectacular!
