Looking for either canoe, preferably 15 or 16 feet. I'm in Northern WI right now, but I'm willing to travel for the right canoe. Thanks

You need to look south. I don't see a whole lot of Dagger canoes in the Great lakes region. If they had broken into that market they would still be in production. The Reflections and Passage are fine boats. The Passage was done in composite, too. Would love to find one of those.

I see them regularly in Tennessee, Ohio and further south. I would watch Chicago craigslist. In Wisconsin, you should give Carl a call at Carl's Paddlin'. There are more used boats there then anywhere in the midwest, except maybe the BWCA outfitters. Carl is likely to have a Dagger on his racks.

All are great boats. I have a few Dagger Canoes including a legend 15 and a reflection 15. The legend is great for moving water but less so for flat water. The reflection is a better all arounder: faster and less affected by wind. Neither of mine are for sale.

After looking for a while for a reflection I posted a WTB advert here and high plains drifter responded like six months later, giving up one of his pair. I hope you have similar luck.

There was a reflection 15 for sale on CL in the twin cities for a while this spring/early summer and I wonder if it timed out and never sold. You might try posting a want to buy ad on CL and see what comes. Good luck with your search.

There are a couple for sale on Facebook market place in Battle Creek Michigan. Posted about a week ago. Could be worth a weekend trip?

Not mine. Usual caution should apply.

Nice looking red legend 16 posted on MPLS CL for a fair price. This won’t last long. https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/boa/d/minneapolis-canoe-dagger-legend/6928409245.html
