I reckon when you get that little leak patched up, it'll make a fine boat ;D.

 You ought to run to southern LA. Last time I was there working there was still some up in the trees. You could probally get a whole one for free.

Very cool.  I'd bond some alignment blocks on the outside of the hull at various spots.  Then, grind and glass/epoxy a nice beefy joint cover on the inside.  then, I'd pull off the outside blocks and grind it back and glass the joint.   Man, i'd jump at the chance to re-build a boat like this.

Dear Mr. Mullet.........I'll take your comment as a joke......after the storm we saw things in the trees that we didn't want to see.   However, when we are out in the swamps with the pirogues we find lots of boats sunk or washed up, lots of reasons I suppose.  There's also a never ending supply of old refrigerators.
