I have taken on the sale of three canoes on commission. These three canoes are all built by Morris Elliot of Kanaka Creek Canoes in British Columbia, and date from 1996-97. They are all in very good condition and can be used "as is" for quite some time before any work will be required. The varnish and canvas is getting a bit old, the woodwork is in very good condition.

They are all built to the same design, which appears to be the Atkinson Traveler. They are 17'6" long.

This first one is very interesting in that it has some references to traditional birch bark canoes.

If anyone is interested, the red and green canoes are valued at $1200 CDN, and the yello at $1500.

An interesting side note about these canoes is that they were used on an extended canoe trip last summer from northern Saskatchewan to Baker Lake, Nunavut.
