Paddling is a great way to keep in shape on the water.  A leisurely Sunday paddle on the Charles or an overnight trip to the Maine islands, we have you covered.  Prefer not to be enclosed in a kayak?  We have canoes and sit-on-top kayaks to get you out there.  We have been outfitting New Englanders for the water for over 25 years and with the best brands and prices around, you can't go wrong at New England Backpacker.  We offer great discounts on accessories with the purchase of a boat and unlike the giant superstores, we will load your boat onto your car so you can get it home in one piece.

Don't forget - we also carry car rack systems from Yakima and Thule along with all the accessories to safely transport your boat
