clemlaw Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 At my blog, I have plans for a 1942 canoe from Green Bar Bill's Boys' Life column: http://onetuberadio.com/2017/11/04/1942-primitive-canoe/ It might require a couple of small modifications for LNT and G2SS, but I bet most scouts would like it today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwazse Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Boys in our troop did just this for a camp-wide raft building competition one summer. Found wood, tarp, and duct tape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WisconsinMomma Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Ben Hunt was local to my area, and in the historical cabin that honors him (that he built) there is a canoe made from I think, old shipping crates. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W._Ben_Hunt Here's an article he wrote for Boy's Life about it: https://books.google.com/books?id=gdvlr4TKT4cC&pg=PA57&lpg=PA57&dq=ben+hunt+canoe&source=bl&ots=86njDgJYvX&sig=yS0gBE8edjpfFTpJ8z2uqqCgglM&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjZ-5-pgN_XAhXnllQKHeA9BtAQ6AEIRTAI#v=onepage&q=ben%20hunt%20canoe&f=false Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
