Elisabeth Van Eyken - Canoe

One of the best Christmas presents I have ever received was your book, CANOECRAFT which allowed me to commence constructing my dream boat... Last May I set her in the lake for her first paddle. Yeah! She floats! While other books on the topic gave me general ideas on how to build a stripper, they were lacking in a refined finished product, sloppy in technique and appearance. Your book gave me the confidence to start building.
