2020 Giesler & Sons Georgian Bay Cedar Strip
Get Financing >
LOCATION: St Catharines, Ontario
This custom-built B. Giesler & Sons cedar-strip runabout represents a rare opportunity to own a modern interpretation of a classic Georgian Bay wooden boat. Unlike mass-produced fiberglass models, this vessel was purpose-built by a respected builder using traditional cedar-strip construction methods, blending heritage craftsmanship with modern reliability.
Completed in 2020, the boat comes with full documentation providing clear transparency and confidence for the next owner. True custom cedar-strip runabouts of this quality occupy a niche market where craftsmanship, provenance, and condition matter far more than simple age or horsepower comparisons.
For buyers seeking a true Georgian Bay–style runabout with documented provenance and timeless appeal, this is a compelling opportunity to step into custom wooden boat ownership without the wait or expense of commissioning a new build.
