Canoe & kayak repairs, restorations and outfitting

Is there anything better than being on the water on a hot summer day? Probably not. But sometimes we can be tough on our boats. The Old Boathouse is there for you when your faithful canoe or kayak needs some tender loving care. We do repairs, restorations and outfitting to help keep you on the water.
