I recently traded the Mohawk (Plastic Canoe) for a antique sailing canoe. This is interesting because I got it up in Waterville, Maine, so I got to see my friend at Colby College. It was also interesting when I talked to my Grandfather who informed me his father was born in a house in Waterville. 32 Morrill Ave. The place I bought the canoe was over the river, but you could still see the house.
The canoe, I believe is a antique Kennebec Canoe, made in Waterville, Maine. She has had her gunwales, deck plates rebuilt. It is also sad that the canoe was vandalized before the owner I got it from acquired it. It is in need of cosmetic attention, but remarkably had no broken sheeting, ribs or excessive rot.
I am excited for this project, because it is something interesting, and unique. I also do not have much overhead in this deal, all of $23 and a few hours for making the seats, and paint. I will consider selling, like all my canoes, just for the right price :)
