The Cruiser is a flat sheer, decked model inspired by the "Sunnyside
Cruiser". The ribs in the cedarstrip canoes are Ontario
white cedar, tile planking is continuous length, tapered, shiplap
jointed, and perfectly fitted B.C. red cedar. These canoes are
given multiple coats of spar vanish inside and out. It's beautiful
to see the grain of the wood and thousands of brass nail heads
when you look down the hull.
These canoes are fitted out in a similar manner to the cedar/canvas
canoes, with the exception that they all have keels.
These canoes are slightly heavier (5% to 10%).
