LOVES Wooden Canoes
I found the following canoe on Kijiji....ad says 16 ft. Peterborough....shows serial number but can't seem to find on Dragonfly list....any help or ideas on what model it is....I plan to take a look over next few weeks (if still available)....looks like it would make good restoration project....asking price is $650 which seems fair....sorry for asking so much on first post....grew up with a 14 ft. Peterborough wood canvas canoe in 60s and 70s (my Dad sold in early 80s)....so I've been around wood canvas canoes before (worked at Kandalore couple of summers and was one of Kirk Wipper's students at UofT....so remember WCHA get together up there years ago....when Kanawa Museum was there)....looking for a canoe with history and that would make solo canoe for Canadian style paddling....but also could be used for tandem trip of week or two (mostly weekends)....looking for winter project....and canvas canoe that I can cherish for years to come (and to honour my Dad who recently passed on....my Dad was first to get me excited about canoes)
Here's pictures from Kijiji ad:
I do apologize if this post is too lengthy or improper in any way....and I do intend to become WCHA member as was back in 70s...looking forward to any help possible...BTW, I live in Ontario Canada, currently north of Toronto
