2001 Souris River Wilderness 18. No patches, no dents/dings in the rails. I bought it used about 9 years ago and refinished it. Just refinished it again (2 coats of epoxy) . I also removed the seats/webbing and put 3 coats of spar on. I'll get new pics soon, but for now, I'll post the pics from the first refinish. Weight is 52 pounds including the yoke..........a Spring Creek portage yoke. Asking $1100. Madison area.

I love my Nova Craft Haida, but I periodically dream of switching to something "sleeker" like a SR W18. I'm not far away, and if I could afford another canoe I'd be all over it. I'd sell my Haida for the money, but I won't play a game of "can you wait until I find a buyer for my current boat?" I'm not fond of guys who play that game. Honestly surprised no one has bought it yet. Good luck!

Just to be clear, the Wilderness is a different beast from the SR Quetico series. This boat loves a big load and loves to travel. It does not like a single day pack and a day out fishing. It's a little tender when empty and sitting still. Great boat for long trips with lots of gear.

Canoecopia bump. I can't make Copia but I'm 35 minutes straight south of Madison. Let me know if you want to stop down and see it. Notice the price drop to $1175. Stored at a friends......need to know if I should bring it home for viewing.

hi, cowdoc, how does this one compare to the MN II or even the MN3? I have someone coming up from St Louis, MO for 'Copia who is looking for a used MN3 for his family to camp out of. Four kids 13 yo and younger. Bob
See you on the other side. . .

How do you like the portage yoke? Can it really be used as a seat as well? Asking because I have a 2-seat canoe that needs to take a 9-year-old. I was told she could just sit on a pack and paddle, but still curious about that yoke style.

For a kid, it's not bad. You need some type of canoe seat to span the 2 foam pads and hold things together. It sits too high for adults IMO and gets things top heavy and puts some stress on the side walls. My sons prefer it for portaging over traditional style pads on a fixed yoke. Some people like the style, some don't. It came with the canoe and I guess I never disliked it enough to change it out to a fixed yoke. I have another on a Mn2 that works a little better cuz it's not as deep of a canoe FYI.

cowdoc: "still for sale with another price drop....$1100. Get a nice kevlar canoe before tripping season starts."
Doc, I need you to sell this canoe already. Please. I can't take it. I can't believe there isn't someone with the money to afford it that wants it as much as I do. Craziness.

Hey Dave,
I'll try to call tomorrow. My weekend on call and never know where I'll be when. Just an FYI, I have tentative plans to be in Lacrosse on April 13th and I could bring it to there to save you some mileage.
