A sturgeon nosed canoe - paulmon - 03-01-2018 Back when I was making boats (and I hope to resume in sometime in the near future), I only took pictures and not video. So now I am taking those pictures and putting them into video, and updating the web pages one by one as I video-ize my boat builds. In 2011 I was commissioned to build a traditional canoe by a member of a local Indian tribe called the Sinixt. It is called a Sturgeon Nosed Canoe and it's a very unique looking craft. This boat has shown and used all over at a lot of festivals and Indian gatherings, thanks to the enthusiastic owner of the boat. Thought you all might find it interesting. http://paddleandoar.com/notebook/snc/index.php Paul M RE: A sturgeon nosed canoe - BrokenOlMarine - 03-01-2018 That is beautiful, in it's own way... I have often wanted to build a kayak and now that I have a bigger shop, I might attempt it. Lol. Very nice... RE: A sturgeon nosed canoe - stav - 03-01-2018 That's a nice looking canoe. There is a member here that goes by the user name Kudzu who builds skin on frame canoes. He even sells kits for them. I planned to get one when I get a space big enough to attempt the build.

RE: A sturgeon nosed canoe - shoottmx - 03-02-2018 Kinda looks like this new destroyer being built at Bath Iron Works in Bath, Maine. g RE: A sturgeon nosed canoe - Arlin Eastman - 03-02-2018 First Welcome to woodnet and thank you for showing us what you make. What resin did you put of the fabric or was it dope and lacquer like on an aircraft? |
