Needs a little TLC. I don't think it would take much to get this beautiful canoe back on the water.

May trade for antique furniture or whatever. 

Thanks.

16 Foot wood canvas canoe, brand new, hand built. Ribs and planking are northern white cedar. Decks and rails are cherry. A number 10 canvas is applied to the exterior with a high quality marine filler to make a waterproof seal. Marine paint applied to exterior. Spar varnish interior. These canoes weigh approximately 60#. Easily managed for transporting and portage.

I bought this canoe last fall and enjoyed paddling it. Since then I have repainted the exterior with Kirby's paint, refinished the gunnels with Epifanes varnish, and replaced the seats, yoke, and thwarts with new cherry versions.

It paddles just fine, but there are some issues to be aware of:

A very rare 20' Myron Smart Guide Canoe, built for my father in 1975. This was one of the last canoes Myron made in Milo, Maine out of local cedar. He was a strong advocate of covering his working canoes in fiberglass, which this one is.

The lines from this wineglass transom canoe came from a Carson City, Michigan-built antique canoe I found in 1996. It was built as a two piece form, on a strong back so it could be cut and remade as a wide transom or double ended canoe as well.

From an estate, only fresh water use in the last few years and kept in a boathouse. Very good sailing rig and sails in new condition. Some rudder and hull work needed to get it back to working order. $950.- (Trailer models available ca. $500)

Built by Skywoods in 2000. This form will build either a 16’ or 17’ Osprey canoe with beautiful high ends.
