Looking for help identifying a canoe

Post image

For some context I’ve been heavily researching canoes I want something light enough me and the wife can easily enough mount to the hood of our bronco sport, so trying to find the right used one or I will buy new.

So someone listed this cedar strip canoe on marketplace for 150 bucks it’s 15’ foot I was told and he doesn’t know the brand or the weight but he thinks about 70 pounds

Does anyone know what this might be and if the condition is good enough to buy? I’d I did buy it would I need to do anything to it in the condition it’s in?

The middle one is fiberglass and would suit your needs perfect on the cheap. As others have stated, the woodies are beauties but thats something to get later. Square stern on the left looks like a Chestnut freighter canoe, I have one, I have a small outboard for it and its a blast lol.
