I found it for $400 on Kijiji. Not only is it a double ended, birch bark coloured Sportspal, the biggest sister of my 12ft, but it also came with wooden seats, that were added to canoe, a support for the motor, an electric 24 lbs thrust motor, a battery, and anchor and even foams to put canoe on car.

The canoe was bought new in 2005, so it's 9ish years old. It's in some ways in better condition then my 12ft.
I love it the folks who sold it to me, a retired couple probably 15 years older then me, wished me as much enjoyment with the canoe as they had. This is exactly what I wished the couple who bought my old 16ft fibreglass canoe.
I just need to add rope to both the front end and the back end of the canoe in the holes meant for rope. Wonder if I can get hot pink rope big enough for this.
