This canoe is based on a design of a canoe built by the E.M. White Company of Old Town, ME in 1920. It was built by Stewart River Boatworks of Minnesota using Northern White cedar for ribs and planking, Alaskan Yellow cedar for inner gunwales and Black cherry outer gunwales and other trim. The breasthooks are from cheery burl wood and that wood has been inlaid in the thwarts.
