My person I was going to get it from bailed on the deal. She said one of her family members wants it. But if they can’t find a way to transport it she will give me a call.
I guess I won’t hold my breathe for that one.
Ughh!!
 
My old FJ60 and a newly restored Cedar/Canvas Old Town I was hauling for my In-laws up in Minnesota.

I sold that FJ60 in 2012 for $2500. Wouldn't pass Denver emissions anymore. Doh!
 
My 60 series with the 15' FishCraft Supercat at a rural NE Oregon takeout, and a rural NE Oregon "put in" (aka a widespot between the willows). I have a few with our 18' canoe but can't find them readily...

Our 2 person.

Now we have 2 singles, an inflatable Hyside 2 person, and 2 SUP's. Gotta find pictures...

I've been hard on canoes, these are two Dagger Legends that I use for field work. The green one is about 25 years old and has suffered :lol: a lot. The hull has been multi-patched over the years :hillbilly:. Haven't used it in a couple of years and pulled it out a few weeks ago to see that the hull was in need of some attention. A roll of Gorilla Tape did the job along with whipping up a makeshift seat since the webbing was blown out. Held up for the day and a 10 mile float 👍.

I’m in the Grumman club. $150 and just short of 4 hours driving. My little Nissan did what I asked of her flawlessly while the truck awaits head removal.

The green one looks well used, I’ve got something not quite that beat, but close.

I noticed your blue dagger is rubbed through the vinyl (blue) and down to the ABS (tan) in areas. In case you don’t know - get some LEGO - blue if you’re looking for colour match, toss it in a glass jar with a bit of acetone. The LEGO dissolves into a goo you can brush on over the abs. Once the acetone flashes off, you can sand the LEGO repair smooth.

Wear in the vinyl isn’t really an issue, but you want to limit the ABS exposure to UV.
