Wooden Canoes are "probably" for sale.

Unless I find gainful employment in the next few days these will be on the block.........1914 Old Town Charles River, Jerry Stelmok/ EM White 16' Standard~tandem, Jerry Stelmok/EM White 15 Foot Willow~Solo..........Quite possibly a near-perfect Hemlock SRT, Red, VERY few miles.  Interested parties can come look at the boats and we'll talk. These are NOT cheap boats.

Please send me prices on the willow, and srt.  handcutdovetail@netscape.net

I am sorry about your job situation but please let me know about the Willow and the SRT. 
Thanks!

Life is a strange game and I suddenly find myself in a "situation"........ I'm moving from Upstate NY to Austin, Texas in about a month if all goes as planned. As you guys know, Texas isn't exactly "famous" for it's great canoeing. As a result I have several canoes that need a new home......right away! 
 
As each of you run into canoe folks every day, I'd appreciate it if you'd simply pop this message into the back of your minds, or, feel free to forward this or post it on canoe related boards and spread the word if you see fit. I'd also be MORE than happy to offer a commission or finders fee to anyone who might find suitable buyers for boats that I dearly love........ and hate to part with. 

I also have a ton of "stuff".......paddles, parts, etc. that need a home. My paddles aren't run of the mill. I have one which is hand carved by Alexandra Conover for instance. I had to wait almost three years to get it. Many are made by Shaw and Tenny........they all need good homes. There's a canoe pole made by Jerry Stelmok that's never been in the water. But wait, if you order now!!........    
 
1 Hemlock SRT~~Red~~Excellent Condition~~$1500  (I marked this incorrectly at $1500......but it got out there so the $$$ remains.......This boat lists at $2700 so it's a steal at $1500)
 
1 Stelmok "Standard"~~ Tandem~~Blue w/ Gold Varnish~~VG plus condition~~$1700
 
1 Stelmok "Willow"~~ Burgundy w/gold varnish~~$1700
 
1  Old Town "Charles River" ~~18 feet~~Made and delivered to Owego in 1914 ~Red with Gold Trim~Restored by Jack McGreivey.  Excellent  Condition.   $2400.

Rich - know a bunch of good places to post these, but need to know how you want people to contact you if interested...

...hope you're keeping at least one boat - it may not be the northeast, but there is still paddling in Texas!
