Looks nice, long way from Maine. That's why it's GU. (geographically unacceptable)

Nice "oars"
I know absolutely nothing about purebreds and mongrels but that has never stopped me from forming misinformed opinions.
This looks like an okay w&c canoe that has had some lipstick and rouge applied. But that wouldn't stop me from buying it, provided they reduced the price by a healthy Grover Cleveland. Good luck to anyone interested. Disregard the upmarket collar and doggie spa treatment. Some mongrels make excellent companions.

Look how close together the ribs are, that has got to be a heavy boat.
I did a little internet research, turns out Chestnut did make a model called the Ogilvy, that had close spaced ribs like that one, and it was heavy at 84 lbs for a 16 footer.
Was made for fishing guides, a heavy duty, flat bottom stable canoe that they could stand in all day long. So maybe this is one of those. How it got to Yuma Az is a mystery.

On the 3:10 obviously.
Ouch!!
Chestnut guide specials were also close-ribbed.
Looks like the 18 ft Ogilvy model with torpedo-ish ends. The Ogilvies were heavy duty and made for salmon fishing in shallow New Brunswick streams. They also used very heavy No. 6 canvas on these boats.

Looks minty to me, like it has never seen the water. Medicine for the eyes.
OT canoes are every where. I found mine at Lake Tahoe. I have had it for 25 years. Built in 1953.
I like the canoe in the ad.
