Neil,
I was talking to him yesterday. Here is his business http://harmonywoodcraft.blogspot.com/ I told him about you and he said to go ahead and pass on his info. He’s an awesome guy and a very skilled craftsman. 45 years is impressive! I have an aluminum canoe just because I like how indestructible they are and the amount of weight you can carry in them but they are a tank! Jason builds all kinds of different types and does hand carved paddles. You could probably also msg him on FB his name on there is Jason Mackinnon and it’s a picture of him paddling in a canoe…shocker. Hope all is well!
Anthony
