I would be thinking closer to the $100 range.

I'd say 65# 14 ft. is quite heavy in todays market.
It does look well used in the pics.
Honestly I'd expect $200-$300, maybe less.
Auction at Mid West Mountaineering coming up the end of April.

some canoes aren't worth much. this might be one of them.

Tough question. It all depends on the quality of the boat. Does "custom made" mean you made it in your garage or had it custom made by a canoe builder? If a builder then who was the builder? What makes it custom? Is there anything special about it? How much does it weigh? How old?


Unless there's something unique to make it desirable I'd expect it to only be worth $200-300 if you put it on Craigslist. Maybe it's worth more than that to you and maybe it's worth more than that to your son's co-worker as well but in the grand scheme of things I'd guess that's the market value.

I have a 14 ft custom made fiberglass canoe in fine shape. Weighs 65 lb. My son's coworker wants to buy it, but I do not know what price to ask. Suggestions? Pictures attached.

Home made versus custom made is a question. 14' tandems on today's market sell for 500-1000 new, so 300-500 depending on quality is a reasonable range. My two cents....
