Hello, Here is an updated list of canoes for Sale at Noel Canoe in Western PA. My friend Dave Curtis has entrusted me to sell off his remaining inventory of Hemlock canoes. Noel Canoe does on water Demos every Thursday from 5:30 to 8 PM at Goddard State Park. I will have all Slipstream and...

Hello,
Are you watching the clarion river gauge? It is currently running 6.64 with a little more rain to come. The State Park shuts down their launches at any thing over 6’. I think your planned put in would be above their launches but your take out might not be. Might pay to have a back up...

I have a Kevlar reverie II we just pulled from the mold. I hope to have it done but not sure I’ll have time. It sure has been a learning experience trying to make his tight stemmed canoes. lol

Hello,
I paddle the Allegheny and the Clarion regularly. Portland Mills to Irwin on the Clarion is one of my favorite day trips. There is a rope swing that is out of this world! I have done the Clarion as low as 1.7 on the Cooksburg gauge but there is lots of walking. I am comfortable at...
