Just watched the vid again. Still impressed. I am currently restoring a chestnut canoe. The bob's special was finished July 2010 and looking forward to seeing how the chestnut compares. Do you have any details about how your build went?
Regards Aust.Canoe build

Thank you ! Seeing the video again to remind me of what I had posted. I was pleasantly reminded of the fantastic job you did building her. And of the great times you must be having with such a well behaved dog. lol

I am currently building a "Bobs special" canoe. Enjoyed watching your video.

Australiancanoebuild,
The build went beyond my expectations. I am working on #2 from the same form. After I finish this one, I have a set of x-sections for a 14' one. I'll be glad to share some photographs of the build sequence if you're interested.
Best regards,

Very nice ! Care to share where you got he plans or is this a design you came up with on your own ?

hobo59,
Thank you.
The plans came from Alex Combs in MN. You can find him at his site under Stewart River Boatworks.

Thank you. I hope it's turning out the way you want it. It's lots of work but very rewarding. All the best.

too bad he's using the bow seat as the stern seat -- maybe he'll get it right the next time

Don't know how much you know about canoes, but when paddling solo, that's exactly what you do to keep the weight distribution correct. Maybe next time you'll be better informed. :-)
