I am moving on in my hobbies and this has too much value to be collecting dust hung on the ceiling of my garage. I bought it used maybe 8 or so years ago. It is a great canoe. I did my best to weigh it and it comes in at 47 pound. There is no major structural damage to the boat. No crunchy spots. It is not without signs of use, but nothing structural. I recently polished up the hull so it looks pretty. There is extra fiberglass on the ends. The seats are cane and in good condition. I created a real third seat with a built in thwart. This seat is constructed in the exact same way the two end seats are, except it has an integral thwart built in so it can remain installed while portaging. The third seat is not installed in the photos and is interchangeable with the stock thwart. This one has the aluminum gunwales.

My wife and I have become bicyclist and our son is grown now, so reality is, we just don't use this. It is too nice to just keep in the dark. I have always stored it inside out of the sunlight. Asking $1600 for it. 715-214-7412. Luke is my name and I am in Chippewa Falls, WI. Thanks!

There are two seats installed. The third custom thwart/seat is just sitting there sort of in place but not installed. Yes there is a fourth seat that is uncut that comes with the boat.

I have no idea what you look like, but you would look nice in it for sure. Make me an offer.
