Malcom,

You could join the WCHA and would then be entitled to post your canoe for sale on this website in the "member classifieds" section and would be entitled to a free classified in the Wooden Canoe Journal. If you don't wish to join, you could contact the editor of the Wooden Canoe Journal and put in a paid add. The Journal is likely one of the very best places to find an interested buyer.

I suggest joining. You'd be supporting a great organization and get an included subscription to our Journal. It's a real bargain.
