Just before the deep January cold set in, the VCB canoe building crew put the final touches on their project. Gunwales, decks and seats were carefully finished and fitted in place. The inside and outside of the canoe still need another coat of epoxy and several coats of varnish. But that finishing will have to wait for warmer weather. We are pleased with the lines of this new VCB craft, and we think it will very happily take to the water in a few months.
