The Canoe - Page 10


The bow deck installed and the bow tip (Mahogany) in place. I varnished the bottom side of the deck as well as the inside of the hull under the deck before installing.

Rear former and deck in place along with the hatch cover. The hatch doesn't have a gasket, but still should keep most fo the water out. The handle for the hatch hasn't been installed yet either.
Oh yeah, I'll need something to paddle her with. Spruce, Mahogany, Redwood, Walnut and Cedar... Fiberglass tip also.

Nose on again with a bunch of junk sitting in the bottom. The inwales are installed and the yoke is abuot to get installed.
Inwales, Outwales, bow and stern tips, and the yoke all installed. Now to clean up and get to varnishing. The interior already has 3 coats before I installed the inwales, but now to finish it all up.

Side view here at about the same time as the picture on the left... Got some cleaning up done, more to go. The plastic overhead is to cut down on the dust, but I'm still fighting that a little bit. Hopefully I can get the finish I want. I may end up building a tent to finish.
