How Moose River canoes are built

Each canoe is individually handcrafted from rough lumber assuring no two are exactly alike.Original technique used is the steaming of the white cedar ribs and ash stems and bending them over a form which is then closed in with white cedar planking. Another is joining a tenon cut on top of the stem to a notch cut in the underside of the sculptured ash deck. An ash out wale with rabbet cut is fitted in place. The realistic ash yoke and cane seats are attached to the white pine in wale by brass fasteners.

Hand-laid fiberglass hull. The finish is clear coat over two part acrylic enamel.

Remember when...

a canoe was a functional handcrafted work of art ?

All it needed was someone to care for it and the pleasure of paddling it would last many lifetimes.

I build these canoes so future generations will see what canoes looked like before cold metal and plastic invaded its symmetry.

This is what inspired me to create this wooden craft. A craft built to last.
