Can anyone out there shed light on the Peterborough Ace canoe vs. the Peterborough Comet? I've known the Dart and the Comet as sister models, the former in cedar-canvas and the latter all-wood longitudinal strip construction. Both have strongly recurved stems (for Peterborough), seats that rotate from horizontal to vertical, and long, peaked decks. The canoe I have looks like what I know as a Comet but the tag says that the model is "Ace". Are the Comet and the Ace the same thing, renamed over the course of time, or are there differences? If they are the same, does the name "Ace" define the timeframe it was built?
