OK, maybe a slightly misleading title, but the question is for you guys that have built several canoes. One person said they have built 80 canoes!
So...where are they now?
How many have you built? How many do you still own? Did you sell them? Do you give them as gifts? (I want to be on your Christmas list if the answer is yes!)

Just curious, as I have a hard time imagining storing more than 2 or 3, but I also have a feeling I might want to build more than that.

I've built half a dozen. I still have them all except for one I donated as a fundraiser (working on another of those now). As I build my own canoes I sell off my non-homemade canoes.

Don't let this get back to my wife !
I have 12 finished canoes, ten are strippers, two Kevlar. I've built 22 canoes.
I have three going in the shop now.
Does one ever have TOO many canoes ? I DON'T THINK SO !
There is definitely worse things I could spend my time doing !


OH my WIFE knows !





Both pics are of the same canoes, taken two years ago.
