Howdy all. So I'm the daughter-in-law, tasked with helping the folks move this canoe along to it's new home. As you can see, it's displayed on the ceiling of their place near Gaylord, MI currently, but the house is about to be put on the market. What I know: mother-in-law says it's an 18' long "old town" style canoe. Hand painted canvas with cane seats. Grandma purchased it circa 1992 from somewhere in Wisconsin (shop or person we don't know), and had a professional canoe restorer in Marquette, MI restore it. From what condition we don't know, how old it is we don't know, etc. etc. My mother-in-law said Google told her the canoe is worth $7500. ??? I can't seem to find where she came up with that valuation, but you know...now it's in her mind. She also thinks whoever buys the home will go ahead and buy the canoe, which I think is iffy! And since it's 18' long, and even too long for my father-in-law's boat trailer, um...yeah, I'm not exactly sure what their plan is here hahaha.
I'd sure appreciate any advice anyone could give on this particular canoe!
