I've never seen a canoe canvassed with mastic- thank goodness, but I've been approached to re-canvas a plywood deck on a sailboat. Paul , from your photos, it looks like that adhesive just might be the ticket for gluing the canvas. On Penn Yan swifts and fliers I usually use outdoor carpet glue on the planing section, and I am wondering what others have used with success for gluing canvas to decks.
