Hi all,
I'm looking to purchase a reasonably priced new or used (but in good, excellent, or "like new" condition) 17RX penobscot (I know royalex is out of production) or a comparable 17+ ft canoe (e.g. Wenonah Sundowner or Spirit II) that weighs 68lbs or less and can handle the beatings of a class II river for an extended 10-14 day trip but also isn't a bitch to portage on Quetico lake trips.

Open to shipping options or picking up within 3-4 hrs drive of Des Moines, IA or alternatively I can pick up in Ely or Gunflint, but not until early August.
Thanks,
Travis

Not my cl posting but,

This has been on craigslist in my area for what seems like the last year. Maybe they would come down a bit on the price?

New old stock penobscot?

Thanks for the tip! I'm specifically looking for a 17RX though. Need that space.

I have a 16' royalex Bell Prospector I would sell. Never used but a couple years old. I got it when ORC sold off their remaining old stock of Bell boats. It has been stored indoors. I know it is not 17', but it has a big carrying capacity, paddles very on rivers and lakes, is royalex, and is in that 65# range.

Friend has a royalx for sell, look at post in tandem & solo canoe wanted.

This post can be deleted. Found my 17RX! $800. Decent shape
