Hi, Paddlewise,

What would be a reasonable offer for a 10-year-old kevlar Mad River 
canoe? It's 16'5" and at this point I don't know which model it is. 
The person selling it says she's used it only once and it's been 
stored in a garage. She also said that the same model going for new 
is $2100. Would kevlar degrade or weaken after 10 years of sitting in 
a garage? I don't know how it's been stored in the garage, but will 
ask.

Thanks for any suggestions on this.

Margot
