Typical asking price is half the original price, BUT you have a very nice boat with a high initial cost.
I have the same issue and have not been able to get a decent offer. Apparently , buyers want a good boat for a great price.
I decided to keep mine and try to sell later. Good luck and hopefully you can sell it to someone who appreciates it.

Thanks. I paid $1,569.00 when I bought it new in 2002. Half of that is, of course, $784.50 (choke).

Its 23 year old. Nobody has any money now or they don’t think they do.
Half the current price is around $1,700. The market is weak. I would try $1,400/offer.
You just need one person.

Best to look for comparables to set an asking price. Search Facebook Marketplace, Canoes-for-sale, and other forums, the Adirondack was a popular model. Kevlart flexcore is not as desirable as Kevlar ultralight because of the added weight.
