Yes, we sell used canoes, kayaks and paddleboards!

Where and when can I buy a good used canoe, kayak or SUP?

[Jump to Paddleboards or Kayaks on this page]

Whether it’s the beginning of the paddling season or the middle of winter, people want to know where they can buy a good, used watercraft. Naturally, many of them turn to us because they know our rental fleet consists of some of the best in the market. Also, they’re often people who’ve rented from us and liked what they paddled.

In the spring and fall, we usually have a number of used rental canoes for sale at our Oxtongue Lake store. Most are Kevlar and often include popular models from Swift, like the Kipawa, Prospector, Keewaydin and Algonquin. In previous years, prices have ranged from $1600 to $2400, depending on the model, construction and condition. These will always have scratches and patches on their hulls but, rest assured, all of our canoes have been reconditioned to a “no-leak” condition. Some may even have new paint jobs, new seats, new yokes and other repairs. All are a good value.

We also sell off a number of retired rental kayaks and SUPs that have seen several seasons of use. Kayaks and SUPs are generally sold “as is” and can be 20-50% off the new price.

Please note that one bonus of buying a used canoe from AO is our Adventure Rewards program. If you sign up for that program, you’ll get a credit of 5% (on cash or debit payments) or 2% (on credit card payments) on the pre-tax price in “adventure points.” Each point is worth $1. You can use the points for your next purchase, even on the same day!

About the elusive $300 used canoe…

We do get calls from customers looking for the elusive $300 ultralight Kevlar canoe. Since most new Kevlar canoes cost $3,000-$5,000, perhaps you can imagine what a used one valued at only $300 would look like! One thing to consider is that, usually, the lower the price, the more TLC will be needed (and the heavier it will be).

This list is up to date as of  March 10, 2023

Please check back in late April, as we will likely start adding more used canoes to the list at that time.

 

If you don’t see the canoe you are looking for, please check back from time to time; updates are made when canoes are added or sold.

Please note: These canoes are being sold by the staff at Swift Algonquin, right next door to our Oxtongue Lake location. The shop is open 9-5 Weds through Sunday, and closed Mondays and Tuesdays. Pictures are not available, please come and see the canoes in person. If you decide to purchase a canoe and don’t have a roof rack or foam block set, you can purchase foam blocks and straps at Algonquin Outfitters. Please call Swift Algonquin at 705-635-1167 if you have any questions.
