Informatie

Covering everything from safety in the boat to shop repairs, Gil Gilpatrick thouroughly explains the whys and shortcuts learned from his experience in the shop and on the water. He uses his own canoes and tests their performance on the challenging Allagash River every summer.

This revised edition includes full-sized plans for 8 well-proven canoe designs, most of which are the author's own adaptations. Step-by-step directions for building a canoe from start to finish are accompanied by more than 100 photographs and illustrations.
