[QUOTE="ppine, post: 454348, member: 22555"] The first boat I can remember buying as adult was an old Sawyer canoe that had been wrapped. Both sides were ripped out of it. Someone had jumped on it to straighten out the gunwhales. I put it back together with fiberglass cloth and epoxy resin. The aluminum gunwales were hard to straigthen but I got them close. It was actually a very fast hull no longer made called a Cruiser. I paid $25 for the boat and used it for decades. Finally I sold it for $300 and upgraded to some better canoes. i have had at least 7-8 canoes since that time and still have 3 of them. [/QUOTE]
