John MacGregor designed the Rob Roy with inspiration from Native American canoes. His goal was to create a craft that would enable him to paddle inland waterways and travel independently throughout Europe. To accomplish this he needed something efficient yet maneuverable while travelling solo with a double bladed paddle.

The Rob Roy is an excellent choice for solo paddlers in need of a quick boat that will cruise at a good pace, while still handling well in windy and wavy conditions. Stability is not sacrificed for speed as both primary and secondary stability are quite reassuring. It has enough cargo space for everything from a day outing to a week of interior tripping. The Rob Roy combines the enjoyment of canoe tripping with the versatility of a kayak.
