I bought this canoe a few years ago and only used it once. I paid 140 bucks for it and definitely got ripped off. Not being much of a canoer I didn't know about the things to look out for when buying a canoe. It has been taking up some storage space at our house for some time now so I am hoping to trade it off for dirt cheap before winter just to get it out of the way.
I believe it is an 11' flat back canoe. This canoe is a bit heavy so it would be ideal for a cottage canoe. I can lift the canoe over my head to get it on my car but believe me it isnt easy! The canoe has a slow leak near the back of the canoe, the picture below shows what I am talking about. It looks to me like it was never properly repaired and has been painted over multiple times. If it went un-repaired it could still be used, I think having a towel on board and soaking up the water would be sufficient. I had big plans to sand down the canoe repair the leak and re-paint it but here we are two years later and I haven't done a thing!
Will trade this canoe for next to nothing, a couple spools of fluro leader, a case of beer, whatever you have lying around I just want it gone! lol
