South Louisiana

Hello from the bayou State of Louisiana, where the paddling is year round but good canoes are hard to find.

Welcome. It sounds like you might need to DIY one and start a stripper. Cypress might make a decent Cedar substitute if you want to remain budget-friendly.

Not that bad, I have managed to find some nice canoes, but used ones are very hard to come by. I have certainly made replacement gunwales from cypress though.
