I made a good trade last Friday. You know its a good trade when both parties feel that they got the best part of the deal and walk away happy. This is why I'm happy. This is a vintage sailing rig for fixing to a canoe, and it was originally with a late 1930's Canadian Canoe Co. wood and canvas canoe. The owners had absolutely no intention of ever sailing that canoe, however they really did need some new cedar for rib replacement, so a deal was made. Her is the rig sitting in place on the Seliga that I am working on. Lee boards with leather straps to buckle them to the canoes thwart, clamp on mast partner, short mast with lateen sail of Egyptian Cotton, and a back rest for when you sit on the canoe's floor while sailing. the backrest just happens to have a teeny-tiny Peterborugh Canoe Co. decal under the layers of dark, crust, old, varnish.
