Single Cedar Strip Canoe 23.5 Lbs!!

You are considering a brand new 11'3" x 27" single canoe - it's the well tested Wee Lassie design. I like this design because it paddles like a kayak, but with half the weight and minus the confinement of a kayak. I built it with western red cedar strips 3/16" x .7", accented with white cedar. Gunnels, thwart, seat and tips are mahogany and the stems are eastern ash. Of particular note; it was constructed without any seams and NO STAPLES!

That means there are no staple holes running up and down every foot interval. I used 4 oz fiberglass cloth, and filled with epoxy resin on both the outside and inside with a double layer running the full length on the outside about 8" in width. I completed the project with three coats of Spar varnish. Included in the purchase is either a matching wooden kayak paddle or an adult and child's canoe paddles. Please note: I will NOT ship this beautiful boat!
