Hello from NE Florida. I paddled outrigger canoes (OC-1 &OC-6) in Hawaii from 2004 thru 2020 before moving to Florida.
After a short stint of trying a motorized skiff for fishing I am now back to canoeing and actively looking for a classic canoe for fishing and taking my wife out on the water.
Looking at Wenonah (Fisherman or Kingfisher), Old Town, and Mad River canoes.
Not much luck on Facebook Marketplace in the southeast United States but continue to look. We will likely take a quick road trip to St Pete to check out Canoe Country Outfitters.
Not wedded to buying used but would like to try different brands and models to see which is the best fit for me.
Looking for stable but relatively light.
If y’all have any recommendations on brands, models, and where I could try out different canoe makes & models I would be grateful.
I look forward to learning and talking with y’all in the future.
