Name says it all, people.
Somehow digitally stumbling across the wikipedia entry for "canoe" for the 38th time, I noticed the highlighted picture is now of a very comely B.N. Morris instead of the yellow Seliga. Just wondering who paid off the wiki folks to bring about this change (ahem, kathy...???) Just glad it's still a canvas boat, and not an Old Town (no offense Benson. They seem to get enough publicity already).

That's an old Jeff and Jill Dean photo, and it was used for Wooden Canoe many years ago. Jeff (or maybe Jill and Jeff together) has been posting some things to the web in recent times; perhaps he added material to the Wikipedia page.
 
Morris 10806 is a Model B, type 2 owned by the Deans. That Morris and the Seliga are the only two canoes Jill and Jeff Dean retained when they decided to donate their collection to the canoe museum in Wisconsin.

I like seeing a Morris on the Wiki page... and also a Seliga (Morris descendant).
