Charles Barnett - 'Strongback'

Its finally done! I began building the strongback on Dec 7, 1999 and first launch was on May 7, 2000.

I am a beginning canoeist. In fact, I had never been in a canoe before this one. (I found that I have a lot to learn!) The building went well thanks to the very detailed instructions in Canoecraft. Thanks also to Steve Killing for the design. Charles Barnett New Whiteland.
