Hello Preacher,


I've got a Nov Craft Prospector 17 in Royalex. It's a beauty - hasn't seen a lot of action. So, it's in great shape.


It is not a lightweight though.


Let me know if you have any interest. Thanks!

I wouldn’t need it until September. Got any details? Pics? Price?

Anyone thinking of selling your Prospector?

I'm thinking about selling my kevlar Nova Craft Haida, but not until September at the earliest.

2006 model in olive. No major repairs--just a couple little patches on the inside cuz I'm an anal overly cautious type. I'll probably be listing it for $1600 assuming nothing dramatic happens to it during the trips I'm taking it on this year. Insane initial stability and so roomy. We have had over 800 lb in it before with decent freeboard left. We also use it totally unloaded for lots of day trips, and it behaves very similarly loaded or unloaded. To be clear, I chimed in because a Haida has a very high capacity like a Prospector. However, the Haida is not a great all-arounder. We take it in rivers--even Kickapoo--because it is what we have, but it is much more at home on lakes.


I don't have access to many photos of it right now, but here is one I've shared on this site before. I definitely won't be selling it until Sept if I do sell it. I'm wanting to downsize slightly to a Polaris to have something I could conceivably solo. I've soloed the Haida a few times, but not for a whole trip and wouldn't enjoy trying that.








EDIT: some more recent photos that I have.
