Publisher's Note
Kevlar is a strong (40% stronger than fiberglass) material, perfect for building light-weight (35 pounds for a 17-foot canoe), fast, maintenance-free canoes. The only problem with Kevlar canoes is their cost--$2,000 or more. With this book, the most inexperienced home builder can turn out a handsome canoe for an investment of about $600 and a few weekends. The principal tools needed are a sharp pair of scissors and a $5 hand plane--and the method is astonishingly easy and forgiving. Featured are designs for a stable family canoe, a solo canoe, and a wilderness tripper, any of which can be built right from this book.

Industry Reviews
``Even though we didn't build a Kevlar canoe ourselves with the book, its easy-to-follow directions certainly make us want to.''

``Moran exemplifies the shade-tree inventor and craftsman who, working alone and without professional training, hits on a better way of doing a thing. You'll enjoy his approach.''
