Canoecraft

Canoecraft teaches more than how to build a canoe, it teaches about life. Much of what can be applied to building a canoe well can be applied to doing anything well. In this new edition of Canoecraft, the first in its 17-year history, you will find significant updates, improvements and expansions. New resins, tools, a changing audience and more than a few new things learned by the author, meant it was time for a complete revision. There is more advanced information for the second-time boat builder, a larger variety of and clearer plans, an additional series of builder's tips - tricks of the trade and a new chapter on making your own paddle, along with new techniques like building a stapleless boat. We hope you will agree this new version of Canoecraft, the Bible of canoe building has something for everyone, particularly those looking to build well-crafted wooden boats. Ahoy there! Whether your goal is to build a general-purpose recreational canoe, an efficient modern tripping canoe or a full-decked fast-cruising canoe with walnut veneer, Canoecraft can help you make it happen.
