Schoodic 17 canoe

It is built using the glued lapstrake process where then pre-cut panels are beveled along one edge, wired together stitch and glue fashion with the panels overlapping and then the joints are filled with epoxy.

I built this one this spring for a church freind.

I stained the top plank, left the rest natural and finished the whole boat with spar varnish

I will write the instructions for building this boat this fall, call for more information
