I am eager to to watch our boat take shape. While there are many YouTube videos depicting cedar strip canoes, this one is a six day course (I think) compressed into an 8 minute video. The biggest difference is that Becky and I will be doing most of the work ourselves with the occasional help of some of Becky's family. Originally when Becky and I were looking for classes we only found courses where several strangers got together to build a single boat. The idea being that by the end of the course you had the skills to go home and create your own in your garage. One lucky person from the class gets to take the boat home (after paying for the materials). Knowing that the likely hood of coming home and actually building a boat after the course (especially without the help of family members to look after Jo) was next to none, we were elated to see that there was a class where you could go and build a boat and take it home. Fantastic.
