If it flies, floats or fucks you're better off renting it by the hour. That being said, never turn down a free canoe. Canoes own they're boats you literally don't have to do anything to maintain.

Next time just let your canoe fall apart, just look on kijiji for free canoes, its easier

I saw this boat the weekend just gone. it's a loving cool boat. When you got a boat custom designed that's the only one in the world this big I guess maintenance becomes a non issue. I went on a couple 200ft yachts the same weekend but they were kinda stuffy and a bit 80's in design so I didnt buy one.

Canoes own they're boats you literally don't have to do anything to maintain. canoes are awesome, if you live in america take your canoe to the boundary waters canoe area at some point if you like canoes and camping, it's an amazing place. also canada has some place called quetico which i haven't been to but it's more rugged and natural since there are like 20 thousand canadians total i think the bwca has hundreds of lakes and rivers and some of the oldest exposed rock on earth and huge white pines and good fishing and moose and other cool animals too

Most people on SA aren't old enough to have a lot of disposable income in order to afford a boat. Those that do aren't generally dumb enough to buy one like our parents unless they actually, you know, use it a lot instead of letting it rot in the driveway.

i have a summer house but it's in the middle of the woods and the nearest lake is maybe half a mile away. would be cool to get a rowing boat w/ an electronic engine.

Dave Concepcion posted:what the gently caress kinda summer house is that? grandparents bought it in the 70s and my grandma couldn't swim and was scared of water. she wanted a forest house b/c she was afraid us kids would drown in the lake. idk i like it, no neighbours and the forest starts from the edge of my yard. also the land was really cheap so i we have a relatively big property.

that sounds reasonable to me, i support your dream of a small boat with an electric motor. you can get canoes with a transom that allows you to attach an electric trolling motor

With the motor you're able to easily explore bigger areas and they can be relatively cheap and easy to maintain.

ah, the hot suffocating summer heat, a nice breeze and water to cool down in? not for this camper! only the finest, densest most mosquito-ridden woods will suffice!
