If you decide you want me to build you a canoe, please call me to place your order over the phone so that we may talk about specifics. I require 1/3 of the cost of the canoe as a down payment, with the balance due when you pick up your canoe. I will send you a color chart and we can talk about other specifics as work progresses. Occasionally there are new canoes for sale in area stores, but the usual wait for a Bourquin Boat is six to eighteen months. There is a 6.5% sales tax in Minnesota.
