Wow! Awesome job. I went back and looked at the starting pictures and you should be extremely proud. That's a year well spent.

Beautiful job. I'm always so impressed by those who have the time, tools, space and interest to revive old canoes.

CTC, your completed canoe looks lovely. I found it thoroughly enjoyable to have restored a canoe to it's original condition (or, perhaps better than new) and then enjoy it in her natural element. Very gratifying. Well done!
