New 16' BL Prospector  - $ 6500.00 

This  unique 16' Prospector-styled model  is a new canoe with a vintage feel.  Construction was started in 1986 and then it was left in storage until last fall. A two-part wood cleaning treatment unveiled the rich patina that can only come with time. The beauty of the wood tone is enhanced by a matte finish UV varnish. The decks, thwarts, carrying yoke and hand-caned seat frames are all made of cherry and are beautifully framed by the aged ash gunnels. Brass stem bands and an elegant Seattle Grey marine paint reminiscent of Tom Thompson's iconic canoe provide the finishing touches on this one of a kind model.

 Vintage 12' Peterborough "Shorty" model 1446

​The 1446 “Shorty” model in Peterborough’s Trapper Canoe line was originally sold from the 1940’s until 1961. Its manageable size makes it ideal for children and for solo paddlers. The steel screws originally used on this canoe lead us to believe it was built sometime in the 1940’s when brass and copper fasteners were not readily available. The restoration project involves 7 new ribs, new inwales and outwales, new decks, minor planking repairs, one replacement seat and a new thwart. 

Work is on this project is almost completed - it needs final coats of paint and varnish, and reinstalling the seats and thwarts.
