Lightweight Canoes




Here are two more boats that I have built. The 13' cedar strip canoe is a design called "Wee Robbie" by Rob Macks of Laughing Loon. I built it in 2005 and weighs about 30 lbs. The 12' white dacron geodesic airolite is a design called Nimrod by the late Platt Monfort. I built that in 2006 and it weighs about 14 pounds. To see constructions pictures of these boats at my Flickr page, see Cedar Strip Canoe and Ultralight Monfort Boat.
