A couple of members here also have or had Gheenoe's. I'm sure they can point you to a good Gheenoe forum's direction. Chris, Joe?

If you want to see a lot of possible mods, check out http://www.customgheenoe.com There are some very knowledgeable people over there.

My personal opinion is that Gheenoes (Highsiders anyways) are best left alone. I had a front deck on a 15 Highsider, and took it off. It is easy enough to stand on the front bench. The only option that I really like on a Gheenoe is a false floor. Good luck with your mods.

Roger that.

I had a 15-9 classic for years. I loved that thing.

But I have the bug again. So, there will be a canoe posted for sale soon to help finance.

I'm with Chris, there are not many mods necessary. Just a few things to suite your fancy. They are the ultimate in "KISS".
