Curious about Wooden Canoes
I am repainting an Old Town Closed Gunnel Canoe that I restored several years ago. When I got the canoe, the cap on the rail that covers the rib tops
was attached with small brass screws on a zig zAG pattern. I put the new rail cap on the same way. Someone questioned the use of screws when he saw the canoe. How dide Old Town originally attach this rail cap? Was It nailed?
