Description: Includes photos and build records of several canoes, particularly the Hiawatha model built on an original Thompson Brothers form. Also features weight comparison for wood and canvas construction versus modern materials, tips for building a seat with a mast ring, and photos of a canoe rigged up for sailing.
Located in Western Oregon, USA, Ferwerda canoes are built using traditional wood and canvas canoe construction. Cedar ribs are steamed and bent over an old canoe form and cedar planking is attached using brass canoe tacks. Canvas is stretched over the hull, and filled to produce a water proof covering. The interior wood shell and exterior filled canvas produces a double hull system, allowing the canoe to flex when encountering underwater obstacles.
