Building the Bateau 14 canoe



After the pannels are glued, next step is to put the hull together with duck tape. Here also be careful and tried to keep true lines, the more careful you are here the less sanding you will have to do later. The 3 sticks of wood are in place only temporarily to give the side pannels the correct deadrise.

Next step. Glue all the seems. Use some thicker here to give the epoxy some consistency. Here I used 4" fiberglass tape.
