Hey all, my brother-in-law is helping with an extended family estate clean-up, and the above is one of the chattels; it looks like a 16 footer and appears to be in excellent shape. Reportedly someone is offering $2000 for it; reasonable?

Last month I was offered an old cedar strip canoe for free. Looking at it, though, there wasn't much left to save, and an awful lot to be replaced. :(

Is it a desirable design from a top designer?
Was it professionally built, or a DIY? If DIY, by someone with experience, or a novice?
How are the details of the build quality?
How is the outfitting?
Ultimately, it is worth what someone will pay for it.

I too have heard of thousands ($US) paid for such, and I expect Christies (or whoever that famous auction house is) might fetch some bucks for that thing. If you haven't yet, you should do some serious web surfing of eBay and other sites to see what you come across. You could call a restaurant in Gig Harbor WA (USA) known as "The Tanglewood" and see if the owner can/will tell what he paid for the one he has hanging on display as part of the decor.

$2000 looks a little low but not unfair. To a friend for a quick sale and no shipping hassle, it is probably reasonable.
