Cedar Strip Epoxy Canoe Kits

At CARRYING PLACE CANOE WORKS we have 4 different types of superior quality cedar strip epoxy canoe kits. In producing our kits, the same care is taken as in the hand-crafting of our superior quality canoes. The materials are of the highest standard available.

The BRONZE and GOLD kits require more work on behalf of the builder. The SILVER and PLATINUM kits are deluxe kits that have most of the labour intensive work done and include deluxe parts and fittings.

The BRONZE or SILVER kits will build 12', 14' or 15' canoes. The GOLD or PLATINUM kits will build our 16' and 17' canoes.
