FS. Edit - Due to unexpected overwhelming response to ads on Craigslist and forums for the canoe, I decided to just list as an auction on eBay. Happy to answer any questions or entertain offers directly from members of this forum. You can see it here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/333978613902
Lightly used PakCanoe 160 by Scansport. Complete with bench seat, portage yoke, 2 paddles, 2 adult life vests and one youth life vest, and two large bags for storage. This is an expedition quality canoe, read more at their website for details. Retail new is over $3,000 plus tax for the canoe with all the accessories included.
PakCanoe hulls are formed by a reinforced PVC skin held under tension by an interlocking framework of tubular aluminum. Seat positions adjust to trim the canoe. Because of their skin-on-frame construction, PakCanoes flex and work with the waves in a way that hardshell canoes can’t. The bow will rise and climb over waves instead of crashing into them and taking on water. This lets PakCanoes run much drier than traditional canoes in storms and whitewater. The canoe will absorb severe impact and usually slide over or by rocks with no damage where fiberglass, kevlar, or aluminum canoes crack or get hung up. In this respect, the PakCanoe behaves much like ABS boats weighing 20 – 30 lbs more.

Local pickup in Bay Area, or with advance payment I would consider brining to a buyer in the western area.
