The old Peterborough High End Champlain is all done and ready for pick up. If you want to be reminded of how this canoe started out, use the index of "Topics" along the left side of the blog window and click on "Peterborough",the posts on this repair will show first.

Here are the concluding photos.

Deck/gunnel end. You can see the new wood scarph jointed on to the ends of the inner gunnels. Its difficult to get a perfect match, but close is good! The outer gunnels are new.

The old Peterborough's had this metal plate on the bow deck, the decal is on the stern. The original decks had splits, which I filled with epoxy and clamped closed. I felt that the original deck repaired had greater value that a replacement deck made of new wood.
