"The We-no-nah J-193 is designed for paddlers of moderate size, or for lighter paddlers looking for a good combination of speed and stability. The J-193 was designed to be the sistership of the new 2000 J-203 that came out this year for the 18'6" C-1 racers. The J-193’s eighteen foot length gives it exceptional tracking ability combined with the blazing speed that Gene Jensen’s designs are famous for. Yet the 193 is maneuverable enough to handle the various wake riding and sprinting situations that you’ll encounter during a race.

In the J-193 Gene Jensen started with his extremely successful J-190 and pushed the hull to new performance levels For medium sized paddlers the J-193 is the fastest canoe off the starting line and has superb speed over the course of a marathon. The J-193 will be the top canoe of choice for many lighter marathon paddlers."
