This is the canoe I built for my wife Marianne, named Eight Years of Joy.

The Canadian canoe is a skin-on-frame version of the classic canvas on cedar canoe.

The advantage of the skin-on-frame construction is a canoe that weighs less than 40 pounds.

This is a real advantage when portaging, whether that's around a waterfall, or from car top to shoreline.
