Boatbuilding
Cedar-Strip Boatbuilding: Build Your Own Canoe
Course Overview
Enjoy the contrast of light and dark wooden strips, the quiet lapping of water on wood and the pride of craftsmanship that stems from building your own cedar-strip boat. From start to finish, cut thin cedar planks and learn to assemble an appealing pattern for your canoe. Students may choose from 2 cedar-strip boat projects: an 17 foot cruising canoe or a 16 foot solo canoe. Students must bring a partner, family member or friend (or two!) to help…this can be a great project that will result in a lifetime of memories. Due to the nature of this course and intensity of instruction, this class is limited to one boat project per session.
