Most of the canoeist that I know don't share my love of the old wood and canvas canoes for wilderness trips. They figure you have to be a little senile to lug one of these around rather than the lighter modern canoes. There's a beauty and a warmth in a wood canoe though that you don't get in any other canoe. Sure I'll use a tougher lighter canoe for horsing around in rapids with my friends but not when I roaming out here painting. I've seen bath tubs with better lines than some of those modern canoes.
