Wonderful 16' canoe made by a friend of mine back in the 1980's.  All cedar, no canvas.  50 pounds.  Very quick in the water, but my wife and I also find it to be quite tippy.

 

I can send more pics if desired.  It would be wonderful if a real canoeist who would appreciate this canoe would use it more than we do.

 

Canoe is in Calgary, Alberta.

asking $2250

Just curious; what's the widest beam at the water line?

32".  That's at the gunwale.  Narrower at water line.  No tumble home in this design.  This canoe is oddly stable in a good swell; it cuts through waves very nicely.

Now I understand, narrower than 32" at the water line explains the tippness you and your wife experience. Sleek and quick to move forward though. Thanks.
