This is a one of a kind yellow cedar canoe. It deserves a respectful yet adventuresome owner who can care for and show it for what it is. Paddles beautifully! Hand made on North Pender Island, recently varnished. Ultra light weight. White oak finishing. One of a kind Fibre glass cedar strip constructions makes this a lightweight (less than 60lbs) but strong canoe. Great for rivers and lakes, fine on the ocean during smoother days. High volume yet sleek shape, assumed payload 650+lbs. Take it camping and easily load and off load either solo or with a partner. This is for someone who wants something no one else will ever have.
