Canoe, Evergreen Sunburst 2, 14.5ft. Like Esquif Pocket Canyon.

Hello, this is my well cared for canoe - burt. I bought it new in 2010 from Aguile alpine in Staveley nr kendal. Evergreen canoes were made in Canada, sadly they are no longer making canoes. The starburst is based on a Blue hole design, which was revolutionary when it first appeared. Esquif are producing a canoe based on this design called the pocket canyon (currently retailing at £1675).

This is a canoe that is brilliant as a solo boat, but that is also brilliant as a tandem. Its amazing on rivers, but will keep good speed on a lake, and this version 2 in Royalex HD is the culmination of many years fine tuning. Its initial stability is a little less than most tandems but more than most solo boats, its secondary stability is amazing and gives great confidence breaking in and out of eddies. I'm selling to make room for a larger boat - I now have 2 kids and would like to take the whole family out. My garage is not big enough for 2 canoes or I would keep it, so its time to let someone else enjoy it.

The Royalex HD means it has extra layers of plastic at high wear areas ie; bow and stern and bottom. It still only weighs 26kg and is easy to lift solo (im average build). The hull has signs of use but has never been pinned or suffered any major knocks, it does not oilcan. I'm quite careful with it and never drag it across the floor, or beach it at full speed. I made some tandem seats for it which will be included, as will the large air bags which keep it very buoyant - everyone swims sometimes.

Specs should be on the web somewhere - its 14.5ft long, 32inch wide, 15inch deep,weighs 26kg and is awesome. Veiwing welcome, cash or paypal, buyer collects.
