German term or phrase: mit einem 10er Kanadier
For a travel brochure:

"Erleben Sie drei Kanutouren - einem der beliebtesten Paddel-Gewässer - mit einem 10er Kanadier. Unter fachkundiger Anleitung."

I can't tell whether this is a team, or route, or canoe make etc.

...we spotted a huge 10-seater canoe and immediately thought it would be much funnier trying to “drive that thing” together.
