LOVES Wooden Canoes
Gentlemen,
I just finished building my second 16' Pal and am considering removing the middle 2' section of the form to build a shorter, lighter- weight one. I'm open to any recommendations for weight reduction of the components (i.e., thinner ribs/planking, lighter wood for decks, seats and thwarts) as well as Dacron for cover. Any ideas you may have tried and worked will be much appreciated. Thank you in advance. Frank
