Fisher Prospector Canoe Project: November 2006
http://mycanoe.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Fisher Prospector Canoe Project. A blog describing the process of constructing a Selway Fisher Prospector Canoe. Monday, November 20, 2006. Well, had a bit of a crisis tonight. It was really windy today (wind getting up to 40mph) so I thought I had best check on the marquee after work. Got back at 9.30pm to find that some of the corner junction poles at the base had broken leaving both ends of the tent flapping in the breeze! Have just spent the last 2 hours dismantling the marquee on my own in the dark!
