Vintage 1950s Handmade Wood Kayak Canoe - Incredible Shape & Huge At 5m / 16ft

I've had her displayed in my warehouse for a few years as she just looks amazing -  Magnificent lines, curves and the sheer size amazes everyone HUGE at just under 5 metres / 16 foot. I'm no expert, but looks to be in great condition - previous owner said she was very fast and stable on the water. Some marks of course, but nothing a little care can't make perfect.   I've taken her on the Hythe Military Canal a few years ago and it was superb fun gliding along.   There are holes in the end for carry handles, I have these but forgot to reattach for photos.

They'll come with her. Apparently, previous owner purchased it from a carpenter who apparently hand built her in the 1950s or possibly 1960s - I'm only selling as moving overseas and need to find her a new home. Would look amazing in a restaurant, pub or nautical setting on display. Or just use her on the water! Two important points please!

1. Collection from Folkestone in Kent. I can help load onto a roof rack. However, if you live very locally to Folkestone, I just might be able to deliver for you in exchange for a cup of tea or ideally a beer upon arrival.   Otherwise, strictly collection only. 2. "Sold as seen" - in other words, if she needs a little attention to a leak, then so be it.

Likewise, if as I expect she's just fine, good for you. She's been stored in a dry warehouse for a few years, there is no rot at all that I can see, so in lovely dry "ready to use or display condition". £295
