Not all of our inventory for a particular model is "used". We may have New, clearance and used versions of a particular model. Keep in mind, that for many items it is quite rare that we Ever have one used since our customers are exponentially more likely to keep their first canoe or kayak when they buy another one. We have many customers who own and enjoy multiple canoes and kayaks!

Where Do we get all these used boats?
Our used boats are either demos from our "try before you buy" fleet, rentals, trade-ins, or consignments.As a service to our Loyal Customers, we may take in trades on boats that they have bought from us.We have a consignment program for boats purchased elsewhere. We are not, however, willing to sell just anything. We must first inspect your trade or consignment to assess its value!There are MANY more people looking for GOOD used canoes and kayaks than there are people looking to get rid of a GOOD one because once you pay for a canoe or kayak it doesn't really cost anything to keep it.
Our customers are MUCH more likely to add another boat rather than get rid of their first one, even if their tastes change.This is largely do to our "try before you buy" program which makes it almost impossible for our customers to buy the wrong boat.
Warranty
New canoes, kayaks -warranty starts from your date of purchase. We can assist your warranty process if you purchased a new model from our store.We don't have a lot of trouble with the brands we choose to sell new, but we also like to have brands that actually help us out when there is an issue. We think of Warranties like a seat belt... good to have one, just in case.
Used canoes, kayaks -no warranty. Canoe and Kayak warranties are never transferrable, so the only warranty is to the original, new owner. All used items are sold as is.
Planning on a Motor?
New -an MSO is available only to the original new owner. We can help if you purchased it new from our store (within the past few years). The only reason we need an MSO is to register the craft for use with a Motor. We recommend you buy a new model if you'll need an MSO.
Used models -do not have an MSO. We can't supply an MSO for used canoes or kayaks. All used items are sold as is.
ALL the Reviews say THIS is the ONE to BUY !!

THEN, look around and COMPARE to all the other top selling brands and models we have in stock. You may confirm what you already thought, or you may not.

Imperfections, blemishes and Scuff marks are very common in shipping certain models from factory to our store. However, in our humble opinion, some brands never make it very close to "perfect" even on their best day. Finish quality varies a lot from one brand to another! You'll notice that Quality, Features and Appearance will vary as you go from one brand, material or price range to another. Our best model for $1000 ten years ago is not nearly as Good as our best model for $1000 Today.
Selection is limited on these used items. Not all of our inventory for a particular model is "used". We may have New, clearance and used versions of the same model.
