This 16 foot cedar rib and canvas canoe paddles beautifully - so smooth and quiet compared to a fiberglass or plastic canoe. The seats are rawhide. The canoe is in very good condition including the ribs, gunwales, planking and seats. The canvas could use some attention in a couple of spots where it joins to the gunwales. My price reflects this. The canoe weighs about 70 pounds and paddles nicely with one or two paddlers.
