Have you looked at the Prospector in person? Those spots may not be all that bad and might result in a really good deal once the seller realizes he won't get what he's asking. Depending on how long they've been there and how much time the boat has spent in the sun it's possible they could be dealt ...

Miquel, if you're referring to our conversation I was talking about the Prospector. I definitely think it's worth a look but I agree $900 is a bit high considering the aforementioned issue.

Now I have to admit the line above got my attention and stirred an ugly image of me or my grandson under a canoe with no way out. Stupid question I guess but ...

I am just looking at buying a canoe. I own a pawnshop and have a chance to trade for an Old Town Discovery 133. I know this is a beginner canoe, not the best at anything and not one for whitewater. I am sure I will eventually move up from it. But my questions are: 1. Is this used in good shape worth...
