Answer:

That canoe sits more lower in the water than any other canoe I’ve seen.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the comparison is done between two things or more than two things which are not of the same type, they are said to be illogical comparison. To make a logical comparison, the two things need to be similar in approach. The absolute qualities of the people cannot be compared. The word 'more' and 'than' is used to compare two things. In the first sentence, the comparison of more than two things has been done using the word 'more'. Hence the sentence is an example of an incorrect or illogical comparison.
