Where to buy a used canoe (Kitchener / Waterloo)?

[rooster]

Hi everyone,

 

I can guarantee that this question's been posted before. Tried a search, but can't find anything.

Anybody know of a used floating canoe for sale in the Waterloo / GTA region?

 

I was looking to purchase one to go for the occasional canoeing / fishing trip.

Any suggestions about types of canoes? I hear that Scott's are pretty good, but pricey?

try looking at sites like ... craiglist, kijiji, buysell, etc.

 

they have alot of used canoes/boats on there ... you might not be able to find one in the KW region but i'm sure u can find some within an hour drive. That's how i got my used canoe.

 

Good luck with ur search

or call Canoeing the Grand to see if they are liquidating any of last years canoes.

good luck,

Scotts are nice and yes like many brands can be expensive. Leah bought her 16 foot Prospector at the mfg in New Liskeard as a scratch and dent and think she paid around $2 grand for it. 1/2 the price of the Langford she had looked at.

Watch the Pennysaver for used Sportspals.

Why not try Swife Canoe and Kayak Co in Dwight Ontario http://www.swiftcanoe.com/

 

The company make fantastic canoes, and at the end of the season sell their rental fleet. When you contact them enquire about their travelling sales show. I think they make a stop in Kitchener.

 

 

When I was able to trip into Algonquin Park, I would always rent their canoes, stable, lightweight, and can carry a large load.

I have a neighbour selling his.. I think it is either an 16 or 18' coleman... he wants 500.00 for it.. it is hardly used and has just been there taking up space...

Just checked, there's one, a 12 foot Sportspal on Craigslist(toronto) for 125 bucks. Looks like a good deal for someone, located 45 minutes north of Barrie. If I hadn't just got one I'd snag it myself.
