17 Ft Mobile Adventure Peace River Cruiser 4 Person Open Canadian Canoe

One 17 foot (2" 7' wide) Canadian canoe on auction. Made by Mobile Adventure (later to become Venture Canoes), the Peace River Cruiser is an extremely adaptable and versatile boat. I did my homework before purchasing this canoe, as I wanted a fast and stable craft that was also capable of taking a big payload for longer expeditions (I believe the official figure was up to 630kg, so 4 bodies and a fair bit of kit!) and it didn't disappoint - great on lakes and rivers alike.It is has triple-ply PE construction, so it's not the lightest, but certainly very durable. I was able to carry it on my shoulder by myself, but I am a big lad - very easy for two people to do the portage on it. Other than the ubiquitous and numerous scuffs and scratches that a boat like this acquire over the years, there is absolutely no serious damage to the boat with and no cracks or dents of any description and good sound gunwales.

There are a couple of water stains on the ash seating, but otherwise the seats and webbing are all in solid condition. I recently added a fresh set of ash handles as the originals had poorly located bolt holes which had worn through - this problem has been corrected - so won't happen again. Included in the sale are a pair of home made buoyancy devices for bow and stern (which can be removed), two Pyranha paddles and 4 life jackets, sized XL (107-127cms), Small (89-96cms, 38-60 kgs), Large Junior (71-90cms, 40-50kgs), Junior (68-72cms, 30-40kgs). Cash on collection only.
