Hello,
I have almost finished the restoration of a 1920's Rice Lake Canoe. I need some help concerning the floor boards. In this canoe there were 2 boards, one on either side of the keelsom. I have the brass clips that were used to hold them in place but the boards themselves are long gone. The canoe was rescued from being thrown onto a bon fire so perhaps that is were they ended up. I am hoping that someone can pass on dimensions or photos of the floorboards from a Rice Lake canoe or a Peterborough canoe of the same age.
Thanks for your help in getting this canoe finished.
