I was driving through Missoula, saw this pretty sad looking canoe on top of a pickup, and screeched to a stop to take pictures. The canoe looked pretty good from the sidewalk.

But it didn’t look quite as good from the street.

I don’t know if it got tacoed, set on fire, or both.

I bet it still floats and that is all that matters. ;)

Would that be negative rocker there ? Doesn't that effect the secondary stability?
Sorry couldn't resist

while using it as a shelter...
I can see that totally happening..

Maybe it is headed off to become a decorative planter in their yard. ;D

It probably tracks poorly, since one side is normal and the other side is all squished in and lumpy. And it probably leans over towards the squished side. But it's probably just the ticket for floating rivers in the Missoula area during the summer "inner tube hatch." If the paddlers drink enough beer, they won't notice any deficiencies in the performance of the canoe.
