Another case of lost film and forgotten cameras at the outset. So, here we see Steffan just after the basic hull was completed.

The COTTAGE CRUISER is a canoe designed for genteel paddling on any lake.

With the hull all in readiness, we began the first coat of wepoxy resin and the true colour pattern of the wood come through.

Near the end of the first coat of resin--sure went quickly with lots of help.

Here, Steff is using the squeegee to ensure an even application of liquid resin over the hull.

Ah the joys of sanding the interior; but, a necessary step.

However, all the sanding was over in an evening and here Steff and the crew from the shop are completing the 'glassing of the interior.
