Been looking for a used recreational tandem canoe that is lightweight and stable, strictly for flatwater paddling. Found a 2007 Kingfisher Ultra-light Kevlar online for sale. It appears to be in excellent condition, lightly used, stored indoors, and has the standard silver aluminum trim/gunwale option. Owner is asking $1400, thinking of offering $1200.
Kingfisher is a wide tandem 39" IIRC. Should be very stable. (I can only use it’s little brother which I had, the 14’ Fisherman as a guide) Might be not the best tandem paddled solo. If that one is as good as it looks in the photo, asking price isn’t out of line. Maybe a little high, but if it’s exactly what you want it is reasonable. Make sure there are no signs of impact or UV damage. Otherwise…the price should go down.
Just wanted to close the loop and say that I ended up not getting the Kingfisher but instead got a very good price on a new 16’ Wenonah Adirondack U/L kevlar. Holy smokes is this a nice boat. Initial stability is good and the boat is SO easy to paddle. It tracks very well, too. At 37lbs, it’s a dream to load and unload. I look forward to many years of paddling the Adirondack.
