Maybe sometime last century, or at least more than a decade ago, a poster from Canada detailed his moose hunting trip and used a freighter to get the quartered meat home. Unfortunately, I can't remember if it was on Tinboats or a hunting forum. sorry.

Nice, rich color combinations. Well done, Sir.

In one of my restorations, the most efficient and least taxing method was with generic steel wool pads. There's a picture somewhere, maybe in the link below on Alumacraft Model A. If not there, one of the others. It was not joy-filled, but shone in the sun. I let it oxidize. I haven't looked...

NO kidding! It's like the guy never heard of Duct Tape. (some people, sheez)

Congratulations. Now, please survive your enthusiasm. The water always has surprises. Be safe.

Like LDUBS said ^, lose the deck. I never quit understood raising the center of gravity in a vehicle who constant peril is tipping or loosing a passenger overboard. That's a nice size for your stated intentions. Try to remember the adage: A boat is a hole in the water that you fill with money...

I'm old, so I look askance at new wonders. I also am very leery of a new member with 2 posts, posting from New York, making any kind of recommendation about investments of any sort. Bu that's just me.

Some of us are going to be watching you and your boat like they are our first newborn. Great purchase and you seem to have some necessary skills and sense of practicality. Best wishes.

It's been a few years, but if you haven't seen the one-year series FIREFLY, and a subsequent movie, SERENITY, then you have a quite rewarding TV session ahead of you. I'm not usually enthusiastic about TV shows, but this was exceptional. Enjoy.

I couldn't find any other shots of your canoe, but here's the link to the Golden Hawk web site. Says 39 inch width. https://goldenhawkcanoes.com/ best wishes. Happy Holidays.

Try pickled okra. Last century, I had an assignment that had me commuting from Chicago to Lone Star, Texas, on a weekly basis. Once every few weeks, I would treat myself to a meal at a Cajun restaurant. One time I talked them into selling me a 2 gallon jar of pickled okra, which I strapped into...

Loved that boat, Pappy. I yearned for one from the first moment I saw one owned by a good friend's father. When you posted back in 2016, I copied the images to put in my "one day" file. Never forgot them. Never came across a Grumman, so I settled for the Golden Hawk. Not the same, but...

Here's a shot of Pappy's Sport Boat from an old post from 2016. Great watercraft!

Similar, but truly not the same, look up Golden Hawk canoes...hand laid fiberglas square stern-ish (more like a balcony so the stern has a canoe point, but motor can be mounted above it). I have one and love it. Lemme see if I can find a pic. (sound track from Girl from Ipenema plays tall and...

Old thread, but I think you should change the referral name of the boat. Not Junk, but "Survivor." Really a pleasant thread to go through. Hope all has been safe for you and the boys.

I think you answered your own inquiry. :) But it is a beautiful craft. What can it do that your present boat doesn't? Best wishes.
