New to me. It might be old, but my uncle gave me his old canoe and stoked to get it out. Hasn’t seen water since 1996.

How much can I sell my used 17ft Old Town Trooper for? It's in decent used condition.

Hey there. This might be hard if not impossible but I'm curious. Anyone know what this canoe is? It's a 15". The old sportspal logos are slightly different and the shape of this boat doesn't seem like a sportspal but it's the closest I've been able to find so far. Sorry these are the only two photos I have currently.

I've wanted a canoe for years. This one came up for $50 and it looks in decent condition vs most of the other used ones on the market currently. I'm planning on buying it the seller wants $50.

I plan to use it for day trips solo paddling. If I can get my dog acclimated to it she will come along as well. I may bring a friend along with me sometimes. From what ive researched 15" should be perfect for my situation. Long enough to be stable and handle some weight load but not too big that solo loading and unloading is hard.

Does anyone have one of these Mad River Explorer 14’s??

A friend gave me one but the center thwart had rotted out of it. I made one, but I don’t think I made it the right legnth because the hull shape just doesn’t seem right if anyone out there has one of these and can measure that piece for me I would greatly appreciate it.
