I just acquired a new project. A partially done Wee Lassie Canoe
13'6". I got the book with it. The price was right, FREE. So I took
it.
I am now wondering if there are any things that I should know that
have come out since the printing of the book in 1995?
Can this boat be built outside without cover, or do I need to protect
it from the weather while I am building it?
I built my Freedom 17 using Ted Moore's Canoecraft book in 03/04. I
can't see much having changed since then as it is a very simple (yet
time consuming) process. His book really didn't change when it was
re-printed, except to add more detail and pictures.
Btw, keep it covered, and ideally, keep it at a relatively constant
humidity until it is fully fibreglassed.
Any questions?
I built a 16' prospector under a deck. I always tarped it when I
wasn't working on it and it turned out great. I also highly recomend
gettin a copy of canoecraft. They also have a forum at
