I am 3rd. owner.Boat has been completely refurbished but has no motor. It was stored in a barn on Lac Pytonga. See for the love of Peteroughs article featured in ACBS website and written by Jeff Birch. The stem and a short portion of the keel adjacent to the stem have been replaced. Some amateur alteration had been made which has been removed. The rest of the wood is original. At our ACBS club boat show it was awarded best non-floating boat. The price is negotiable as I simply want it to have a new home. I am told it should not have more than a 20HP motor.

Terrific boat for the collector or as a first purchase into the world of wooden boat ownership! This Peterborough Lakeside is from a single-family owner. She was originally purchased by my grandfather in Niagara Falls, Canada, in 1949. My father and I saved her from the barn in 1988. We then imported her to the US and stripped and restored her by 1996. Custom seat cushions, re-chromed hardware provided. The original paddles, floorboards, cable steering, throttles, and glass are installed. Navigation lights and remote kill switch were added along the way. Her bow is marked with the original registration number “NF443”. The Viking motor was the second purchased for the boat in 1961 and runs well. She is now located in a northern suburb of Indianapolis, IN. This boat always gets compliments and shows very well. Both boat and trailer titles are ready for transfer upon sale.

I am 2nd. owner, purchased in Ontario, Canada shipped by truck to BC. Canada, and only used in fresh water. Each year engine winterized and tuned by Dean's Marine, Duncan BC. Sanded and varnished above the splash rail each year. Hull fiberglass eliminating presoak each year. Used on Lake Cowichan for cruising and fishing. Berthed at Lake Cowichan Marina from May through Oct. out of water under shelter Nov. through April. It's a showpiece, every weekend lots of comments "That is the nicest boat in the marina!" It only draws 4" of water so gets up on a plane easily and is very stable.

Cedar double ended rowing skiff with spoon oars with leathers. Boat came from Muskoka area. Had been owned by the Hand family then another party in Ontario. I got it about 20 years ago and subsequently had some strips, 1/2 keel and a stem replaced by the instructors at Urban Boatbuilders in St Paul. the outer hull was stripped and I varnished with Deks Olje. Our use at the cottage was great but our use is inconvenient by the repeated in and out with soaking when we would return after a few weeks away. Deck batten boards need repair or replacement. All original hardware including the rare foot brace. Interior and gunwales could/should be refinished. Has been in dry storage for 5 years. No trailer, can car top or fit inside a van. Wonderful rowing. Can assist with delivery.

This is a very rare model of Peterborough and a must-have for the Peterborough collector. The traveler model was only built in limited numbers and was one of the company's early efforts to break into the inboard boat market. The design was very utilitarian with no windshield and center-position steering. She is quite heavily built compared to other Peterborough boats of the era. Powered by a Universal Flexi-4 engine, predecessor to the Atomic-4. Some restoration work has been started and she is now ready for a craftsman to take over the job!

The Peterborough Canoe Company was one of Canada's largest and best known boat builders. During their production, the company produced outboard boats, sailboats, racing hulls, and a small number of inboards. This is a fine example of the AutoCraft Launch produced by Peterborough in the 1920's. The current owner located this boat in an Illinois warehouse. She was completely restored in 2003. She is powered by her original Kermath model 20. Only 3 of these boats are known to exist today. She is graceful and a beautiful survivor!

This boat was commissioned as a custom build for a family on Stoney Lake back in 1939. She was completed after war efforts were stopped in 1946.

She was fully restored in the 1980's and had a new bottom installed. The boat is still in excellent condition and shows that it has been very well taken care of. This is also a very functional design with the second row of seating behind the driver's position. She has fresh varnish and is ready to go! This is a rare 3 owner boat with a nice history.
