Timber BoatWorks

Designers, manufacturers, and builders of wooden boat kits. Timber BoatWorks specializes in Stitch and Glue construction, and cedar strip construction of wooden boats, kayaks, canoes and paddle boards.

We offer instructional videos on how to build using wood, composites, fibreglass using basic and advanced techniques. We also offer advice, services and products for repair, custom building and refinishing. 

Based out of Edmonton, Canada, we continue the lineage of stitch and glue, cedar strip and skin on frame kits that we began manufacturing  in 1955. The boats were adapted and designed through the mid 1980's into the stitch and glue constructions you see in the videos. This year we have designed three new kayaks, which include the Orca 16, the Anuri 16, the Trillium Expedition and the Quick Build 16. 

Our company is in a constant pursuit of high performance, durable, unique and iconic kayak, canoe and paddle board design for you to build your own.

Handmade. Adventure Ready.
