I've been making wooden canoes for the past 27 years now. I've made 62 full size canoes and dozens of models.
Lately I have been making very few canoes as I am having difficulty keeping up with snowshoe and furniture orders. You can still contact if you are interested in ordering and I will let you know if I can help you.
They are made using the same methods the native Americans used with the exception that I offer a modern marine caulking for those who prefer not to fuss with pine pitch. If you're a purest I do have pine pitch. The wood work is Eastern White Cedar and a little bit of Ash. They are sewn with White Spruce roots. No nails or staples are used. Many of my canoes are ordered for and used as décor but they are perfectly functional as well. Please contact me with any questions.
I also offer a folding, portable canoe seat for passengers shown on this page. If your canoe passengers don't like sitting on the floor of your canoe this will take care of that. Its very comfortable, attractive and also doubles as a camp chair.
