Beautiful canoe—I always admire you woodworkers who have the patience and commit the time to build one of these strip canoes. Congratulations on a job well done!

Beautiful -that is one of my next projects ,my idea is to use indigenous woods to South Africa using Cape Hollly and White Alder for weight and inlays out of a few others.

Great job! It’s on my bucket list, but the old I get the less likely it seems that I will get to it.

Great looking canoe! The bead and cove construction sounds interesting. It would be nice to see the details of that.

Awesome…Always thought I might like to try building a canoe but perhaps it might never happen. Thanks for sharing with us.

Awesome! Like so much! Good paddle!

Total envy, that’s what I’m thinking about right now. I keep telling myself that someday I will get to make my own boat. But for now all I can do is stare and gawk at your work, envious as all heck.

That is a beautiful canoe, you did a amazing job. You will get many hours of enjoyment out of it I am sure.

Awesomw job! Canoe building is proof, you can never have too many clamps. Enjoy!

Beautiful job! I have also had it on my list of things to do for years now. Honestly, I think it’s the fiberglass work that holds me back. Honestly, how bad was it?

Gorgeous, I love cedar canoes.

-- A childs smile is payment enough.

An old carpenter I used to work with told me once, you’re not a complete woodworker until you’ve built a wooden canoe…. wasn’t sure exactly what he meant until I saw the one he built.

Some day soon, I hope I can build one as nice as yours.

very nice. I’d be afraid to scratch it, it’s so nice.

There are few things prettier than a wooden canoe. Great work!

Sweet-looking canoe. I’ve wanted to build one for ages. Someday I’ll take the plunge and try to make something similar.
