<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Deceptively beautiful, modern woodstrip canoes are not only rugged and responsive in the water, they can be built by anyone with a minimum of woodworking skills. Canoecraft contains step-by-step instructions for seven different, low-cost, classic canoe models. Illustrations and photos.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p> Reviews of previous edition: </p><p> <i>An excellent definitive book... something you must read if you are going to build a woodstrip canoe.</i></br> -- Canoeist </p><p> <i>If you want to build a strip-plank canoe or kayak, Canoecraft is the book to buy... A very comprehensive boatbuilding book and highly recommended.</i></br> -- Water Craft </p><p> <i>A</i> Woodworking Magazine <i>Top 40 Book</i> </p><p> Now revised and expanded with 32 pages of color and an updated resources section, this 70,000-copy international bestseller, known as the 'Bible of canoe building' is back, bigger and better than ever. </p><p> Ted Moores is a master builder of woodstrip/epoxy canoes. Over four decades teaching wooden-boat construction, he discovered that the same dream motivates all of his students, no matter their age: to build something beautiful and functional. </p><p> <i>Canoecraft</i> is the road map to that dream. Moores offers comprehensive instructions for the first-time builder, and for the second-time builder. He adds a variety of canoe plans, each presented as a traditional table of offsets. There is also a series of builder's tips and techniques, and an entire chapter on carving a paddle, the perfect accompaniment to a handcrafted canoe. </p><p> Whether the goal is to build a general-purpose recreational canoe, or an efficient modern tripping canoe, or a full-decked fast-cruising canoe with walnut veneer, <i>Canoecraft</i> is the ideal guide to making it happen successfully. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>An excellent definitive book ... something you must read if you are going to build a woodstrip canoe.-- "Canoeist" (7/1/2001 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>If you are planning to build a canoe or just want to learn about how to do it, buy this book.
