Unlike any other seat on the market, the Fusion 360 spins in any direction. To improve comfortability, the Fusion 360 seat is well padded and quick-drying with a full-size frame. The Frontier 12 comes standard with a bench seat. The new tracks are tougher than plastic and make it easy to insert and remove accessories. NuCanoe recently upgraded to aluminum, top load gear tracks on the Frontier 12. In addition to hosting the “Fusion 360” seat, the long gear tracks offer more options for mounting gear and electronics. A huge, 70-inch gear track runs down either side of the cockpit. Two more gear tracks in the tankwell secure a gear crate or live well within reach. Two short gear tracks in the bow are convenient for mounting electronics and rod holders. When I’m carting the kayak through the woods or fishing in heavy cover, I can store my rods on the deck and out of the way of low-hanging limbs.

Like a blank slate or empty canvas, the Frontier 12 is designed to be a starting point for each angler’s creativity. The lack of standard features is the boat’s greatest feature. Simplicity is at the center of the NuCanoe Frontier 12 design.
