Markus Hanusch - Eagle

Dear Bearmountain team, Finally, I have found the time to give you a feedback about my Canoe project started in summer 2003 and finished in spring 2004. First of all I want to thank you for the great plans and documentation as well as the superb "Canoecraft" book, which helped me very much during the preparation and the building process. It was my first canoe building project and here in Switzerland it is really difficult to find all the needed building materials. However, I cleared all the hurdles and built (in my opinion!!) the most beautiful canoe from pine and plantation mahogany. During the summer of 2004, we have been on the lake Constance every weekend and enjoyed the docile behaviour of our so called "Eagle". Feel free to add the attached picture to your photo gallery. Have a good time and once again many thanks ! Markus Hanusch Castellstr. 33a CH-8274 Taegerwilen Switzerland
