Pirogue - A canoe or piragua. Used by Cajuns in Louisiana's
backwaters and swamps.
backwaters and swamps.
These are built as a simple boat, my design is modified for more stability. Comes standard with
buoyancy foam under each ends, fiberglassed seams, and entire craft is epoxy encapsulated.
All crafts are float tested to check for leaks prior to finishing.
12 feet models can hold 1 adult with light weight gear, or 2 light adults total of 280 lbs.
14 feet models can hold 2 adults with light weight gear, total of 340 lbs.
16 feet models can hold 2 adults with medium weight gear, or 3 adults total of 400 lbs.
Design incorporated with small "rockers" fore and aft, with flat across bottom. This allows easy
maneuvering among hidden trees and shallow waters. Some have said these pirogues can almost
float on heavy dew.

MGB - An replica of Monet's garden bateau
This style of bateau seen in lily garden at Giverny near Vernon, France
A home of impressionist Claude Monet
Several photos found in a book titled "The Secrets of Monet's Garden"
It is a very sweet little rowboat for pond or a small lake, I am very fond of this design. I built
this to special order for a lady. I started out with 12' and reduced to 10' upon her request.
As of now this boat is available in 12' and 14' only. In either plywood or planked version.
