New Canoe?

So Me and the Wife Finally Acquired a Canoe. We have been looking and talking about it for years and going back and forth between Kayak's or a Canoe...The Canoe won out.

So Craigslist it was, I have never purchased anything through craigslist, but I am very pleased that I did


So here she is, A Grumman 17 ft Canoe it is an older one for sure, we believe from the 60's


This Canoe is from Virginia, the Coastal Canoeists emblems on both sides at the front, a large canoe club There. The nose has a hole that appears to be for attaching a rope or something to it, I plan on a Brass Latch/ Swivel or something with a nice Braided rope for a pull rope/ Tie off  for it


Difficult to find out the exact year she was made, but looking around online it appears to be from the 60's from the G designation number but other than that we don't know, but she is a classic and we can not wait to put it in the water.


Karma is a little timid about it, she will hop in but she is Skeptical of the whole thing. Wait till she finds out she is going in the water with us.
