Hello all! I’m brand new to this site and forum so forgive me if this isn’t the right place to ask this.
I’d like to buy a Swift Prospector, or possibly one of Swift’s other tripping canoes. Can anyone recommend a good Swift dealer in Minnesota or the upper Midwest? I’m also open to buying used but my guess is that it’s pretty rare for folks to be selling them. I’ve always wanted a Swift canoe and now I can finally afford one, but would rather not drive to Ontario to buy it! Lol

I shopped Swifts at Rutabaga in Madison. I think you'll be able to buy at discount a Canoecopia,virtual this year.

The link to their site was dead when I tried it a couple days ago. Maybe I wasn’t punching it in right.
A canoecopia? Lol Well I hope so. But haven’t seen much of any discounts anywhere yet and I’ve been looking.

I'm not sure why you were unable to link to their website. Rutabaga is still online. They just redid their website.

I used Rutabaga when purchasing our tandem Swift canoe and then called them again when I purchased a Swift packboat. I do recommend checking out Canoecopia for the discounts on the boats.

Rutabaga has been redoing their site. I don’t think the boats are listed yet.

Sorry to briefly hijack;

R1verrunner, if the OP isn’t interested in your Bell Prospector, I would be. I’d love to hear more about it, condition, trim, repairs, etc. and of course what you’re looking to sell it for (or trade). Shoot me an email if it remains available.
