Cedar Strip Canoe
Description
Selling my Lovely Cedar strip Canoe. I built her a couple of years ago following the Red Bird plans in Ted Moores book. She’s a dream to paddle an covers large distances with ease. Tracks straight an true. She covers lakes an harbours with ease. I’ve often solo paddled her and as such I do not have the seats installed as I kneel when paddling
She’s 17’ 7.5” long
beam of 35”
she weighs 55-60lbs
Her hull is of western red cedar sheathed in 6oz glass cloth an epoxy. Her rails an inwales are made from local Ash. I used cherry for her thwarts that are hand canned. I also used cherry for the carrying yoke that I carved. For the decks she has curly oak and curly maple. The long tailed duck on her bow is made of many wood veneers.
There is also Cherry an walnut paddles to go with her if interested. She was stored indoors all her life. 6 coats of varnish earlier this spring. She was well loved and cared for.
Asking $4,600
