I could fix it without too much trouble. That said, i wouldn't pay for it. If it was free, i'd consider going to get it and adding it to the project list.

Ha! Funny, I was thinking the same thing. Even so, I'm still thinking it would be better served in the landfill.

I don't mean to hijack the post, but here's a story about a friend, a retired art teacher/paddler/DNR field worker, who rescued an Old Town Pack canoe, and brought it back to life.

That's an interesting and informative article. Took some ingenuity to get that done.

snapped pic of this one today free project canoe just needs a little love and TLC, no rust, still partially floating after 15 years, all original, a real steal...If you get this one done there is another about three miles upstream that I can point you to that's been wrapped around a bridge piling for the last 12 years...

There's an old square stern at the JAP end of Seagull/JAP portage. It looked functional. It's a bit dented up. It's tucked under a rock ledge a little ways back on the on the portage. I think the last registration was from the 70's.

Haha yeah it should be free. However it is always possible to hit a younger person who wants a project and doesn't know any better. Why not give it a go if you need the cash.
