Product Description

Synopsis

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bear Mountain Canoes design them, build them and use them., 3 April 2001
By A Customer
This book has long been one of the standard reference books for anyone interested in building their own canoes.

Ted Moores and Merilyn Mohr at Bear Mountain Canoes have long been involved in the development and building of both classic and modern open canoes. They have developed the strip building techniques over many years of running canoes building workshops, and simplified them to a point where almost any reasonably competent woodworker can produce a canoe to be proud of.

The book is well thought out and takes the reader through a short history of open canoes, in the country where they began, through a discussion on the reletive merits of different designs, to building.

The main concept of the book is to help the reader to build their own canoe, and this it does admirably. A well illustrated and clearly set out book, which if it doesn't start you building will certainly start you thinking about doing it.
