Peterborough Sailing Canoe – $2500
This fully restored 18 foot cedar/canvas canoe is a piece of history with not many of these left in Canada. It has had one broken rib replaced, many rotten ribs tops repaired and some new planking. I also repaired the stem tops and scarfed in some new pieces at the ends of the boat. Then new canvas, filler and paint. inside there is a couple of coats of new varnish and some new hardware. The sail is in good condition as are the spars (mast). More photos to come.
Nut Shell Pram with full sail rig – $6000 SOLD
I built this 9 foot version of the Nutshell Pram as a good way for my children to learn to row and sail. They have now outgrown it, so it is time for someone else to take the helm. Normally the boat is built with plywood, but I wanted something a bit more exquisite, so I strip planked it and covered in fiberglass inside and out. One rowing station with wooden oars and leather collars. Once the sail rig is set up it will have a Tan Bark colour sail with solid Douglas fir spars. Mostly bronze hardware (brass where applicable). Recently had some minor repairs and new varnish.

Lawton Tender Row Boat SOLD
I built this cedar strip row boat a few years ago and now the family is looking to sell it. It has only seen water a few times, so is relatively brand new. Design specs can be found here. Lawton Tender . It is being offered for $4000 which I believe is a fair price. The boat had a photo in Wooden Boat Magazine in the “Launching” section. Contact me so I can put you in touch with the owners or link to their ad on Facebook Marketplace.
Black Pearl Greenland style kayak. SOLD
Designed by Bjorn Thomasson of Sweden and built at Orca Boats, this traditional style of kayak is a slender, low volume, playful kayak. It is rated for a person around 5’8″ to 5′ 10″, with a weight range of 155 to 175 lbs. and with the smaller, traditional style cockpit, it would be better suited to a slender paddler. This is not a recreational touring kayak for long trips, but rather a fun boat to surf, roll and rock garden in. It was originally built for a customer who nearing the end of the build, bowed out, which means you can get a pretty good deal on this one.
