I met a couple of anglers in a homemade fibreglass canoe. They claimed
it weighed only 25 kg, and had put in a carrying yoke at the balance
point as part of the construction. They were indeed able to carry it
single-person, but it looked like more than 25 kg from the way they
walked.
Thanks Rick.
Please post some pics of the old craft. Would be very interesting to see.
I think the loons in my pic are Arctic loons, not Common loons... -but
I only have Wikipedia to go by.

What I've heard is that global warming is thought to be a major
contributor to algal bloom in some Canadian lakes. Since loons hunt
fish by sight, if they can't see to catch fish, they won't populate
those lakes with algal bloom, thus squeezing

That's a great looking craft. I need one of those. I have an old
fibreglass canoe that is just too heavy to be useful, so it hasn't seen
water for several years.
I like the shot of the Black-throated Divers (or Loons - what do I know,
I'm Australian.)

I love canoes. We have a lovely red canoe we got each
other as a 10th anniversary present, almost 21 years
ago, and we love going out in it. Last summer we had
my grandfather's 1906-vintage Old Town rehabbed, and
it is lovely. I'll have to post some pics sometime.
