High end dugout canoe
Posted: Wed Dec 16, 2009 9:44 am
Hi all...this dream last night...
I had purchased a boat and was walking around to a lake where I had been told that the boat was moored. As I approached with my husband I could see that the craftsman was still working on the boat. He finished carving the high ends and was painting some varnish and I thought "he is putting the final layer on".
The boat seemed to be carved out of a log like a dugout canoe but a lot of care had gone into carving the two ends which were about 3 foot high. Despite the fancy ends the boat had a tough rather than elegant feel to it and it was not a super smooth finish but slightly rough hewn looking. The picture below is the closest I could find but the boat in the dream was slightly wider and the ends were higher and it seemed to be out of one log rather than with any joins.
As I approached I was expectant but felt slightly disappointed as I felt that this boat was gong to be heavy to maneuver on my own-I wondered whether I had done the right thing. When I got to the boat I wanted to speak to the craftsman but he had slipped away. There was a wooden paddle in the canoe and I said to my husband that I would take the boat out and have a go on the lake.
