Title: Where to find a reasonably priced Canoe?
Post by: Piranha on May 29, 2009, 12:33:14 PM
Not sure if I would like to spend a grand on a canoe for the family. Does anyone know if you can get a canoe for around $500?

Check out the craigslist, all sorts of canoes for under $500 on there.

I second that, craigslist is probably your best bet, I see them on there all the time for around 300-600 dollars. The only place I have seen them new around that price range is canadian tire, not sure of the quality though.
Heres just a few I found looking through the newer ads:

Check out Canadian Tire. They usually have some good quality Coleman's.

Best bet is probably craigslist, you could also try looking for some local forums such as http://www.vankayak.org/forum/index.php.
