Vintage Trailcraft Wood Canvas Canoe Square Back 14.5 Ft

This is a Trailcraft kit built square back canoe. 14' 6" overall. Manufactured in Kansas, these were sold in the 60's and 70's. It has all mahogany stringers. The ribs and transom are plywood.

Seats are aluminum. Whoever was the builder they did a good job. Hull has been painted twice. It is fiberglass over canvas. I've had it about six years.

It paddles well. I never had a motor on it.Bad news..It slipped off the car top when I transported it and did damage to the inner wale and one rib. Pieces broken off I saved. There were two or three holes put in it. Buyer can make a simple fix and use the boat or re-skin the boat and make a good fix on the damage at the time.

An attractive and quality canoe. The mahogany is worth the starting price. THIS IS A FIVE DAY AUCTION. I will travel to Michigan next Thursday and could drop the boat off along the way. Contact me first for this as I'm only going half way up the Lake Michigan side.

Otherwise, it will sit in the back yard until buyer picks up. I'll' hold it a few months. Ask questions if you have them.
