Great wood boat. I love mine. There's no comparison of a wood boat to a Tupperware boat. Sort of like a Stradavaris (sp?) v an electric guitar.

I have a cedar strip solo canoe which I love. Bruce, just looking at the front of yours is it a guide boat style? Beautiful and I love the guard dogs...... Both keeping "watch".

Here's a boat I built about 7-8 years ago. Not a strip boat, but a Stitch and Glue design

It's all good John... I could look at that boat many more times.

It is a 17 ft square stern Rangely Lakes Guide Boat made by Jim Beilke , Jims Boats, of Minnesota. Five different woods, old growth redwood, fir strips, mahogany , ash and maple from his farm. Hand carved oars and leather wrapped. A 10hp really scoots the boat, seldom use over 80 percent throttle.
