Chris,

Here are those much delayed photos the Gerrish. As nice as the model is that I got from you, I do like some of the finishing on this canoe better. Probably not quite as early but finer detail on the rails, seats, thwarts, and decks. The notches on the decks are under cut and all top wood is all nicely chamfered. Enjoy.
