Hawaiian Outrigger CanoeThis was a fun project. I brought koa and mango wood from Kauai back to Minnesota, with the express pupose of making this little knicknack. The hull and outrigger beams are Koa, and the ouitrigger float is mango. The mast is 1/4 inch dowel and the spar is a steamed and bent bamboo skewer. The sail is pachment with a sea turtle graphic, done in black Sharpie. The rigging was quite a project….done with kitchen twine. The overall length is about 12 inches. All wood parts are sanded to 220 and finished with spray satin poly.
