I am selling my Northstar Magic solo canoe. It is constructed with the Starlight layup and has wood trim.
This Magic is a one-of-a-kind layup, as it was Ted Bell’s personal boat for a spell -
it is the Magic you see him paddling on the Northstar website:

It has a UL foot brace, UL carbon/foam rib reinforcements near the seat, cherry wood out wales, and a gold/red woven Kevlar instead of the usual gold/black.
Some minor scratches, but it’s been paddled, and is in great condition. Stored inside the garage. Wood gunnels meticulously sanded an oiled to a smooth finish, 303 protectant regularly applied.
For those not familiar with this boat, it is a pretty fast boat and great for covering longer distances, especially if you enjoy sit and switch style paddling. It has good tracking as well as a fair amount of responsiveness, and can turn very well when leaned to the side. When kneeling, it’s extreme tumble home gives you a feeling of being “locked in”, similar to the feel of a kayak. It also handles wind and waves, and a pretty good load quite well.
There are more photos on Rochester, Mn craig's list ad:
