It looks perfect and I am sure it will row well.

What does it weigh.

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

I'm not sure what the boat weighs. It feels about as heavy as a standard aluminum canoe. It feels pretty light, but still sturdy. I think the plans said it would come in between 65 and 85 pounds. Mine is probably on the top end of that because I used ash for seats, rubrails, deckplates, etc., to make it look pretty.

I would say it's too awkward to cartop. I'm going to try to find a trailer.
