I have decided to sell my Merrimack canoe. This is a high end hand built canoe that you'd want for quiet water not one you'd want to drag over rocks or gravel bars. I bought it new in 1997. It has been used only, maybe, 15 times. It has been kept indoors in my dry heated, humidity free basement.It may have a few light scratches on the bottom that are barely noticeable. It is in pristine like new condition. It has been waxed and the exposed ash wood has been treated with Gunnel Guard.

It is an extremely stable canoe, in fact with one person you can stand up and cast when fishing and with 2 adults is in very comfortable. Very stable and tracks nicely.

It is the 13’ Osprey model and is in the Acadia Red color.

Length 13' - Beam 39" - Depth 11.5" - Bow Height 19" - Approx. Weight 48 lbs. - Capacity 600 lbs.

Osprey Canoe - 13'


I have 2 solid cherry, Guide Beavertail model paddles and a waxed canvas paddle bag they fit in.

The Guide Beavertail Paddle


This model canoe new would be approximately $3,350 to $3,900 and the 2 Guide paddles $375 and you would then incur shipping charges and possibly tax.


I would sell the canoe with the 2 paddles; throw in 2 additional wooden paddles, 2 PFD’s and the waxed canvas paddle bag for $2,500.


( I'd consider a trade for a AH Fox, LC Smith or Parker SxS )



I have many detailed pictures of the canoe itself to show it's condition that I can send so PM me if you want them or additional information.

I live near 6 Flags/Great Adventure, If you would like to try it out let me know. I would deliver it within a reasonable distance.

Thanks for looking,

Bob
