About 20 years ago Andy Guibord was on his way to work on a Saturday.

He has a habit of hitting a few garage sales on his way into the shop on Saturday mornings.

He showed up with this old Coleman 15' canoe with 2 paddles and 2 life vests.

Andy had paid $75.00 for the package which we decided was a steal.

These cheap old canoes are really a good value for something to knock around in.

They come in 12', 15', 16' and 17' lengths.

They are wide with a flat bottom for lakes and smooth river paddling.

That day I bought the canoe and Andy and I share it.


Today we have kayaks and standup paddle boards that compete with canoes.
