Boatshop Tour

Welcome to Lost in the Woods Boatworks! Here you can see an outgoing custom-decked lapstrake canoe, and another very elegant ketch-rigged canoe just behind. A couple more canoes and a Seabird runabout wait their turn.

A classic Seabird runabout, a brand new 16ft lapstrake canoe, and a lovely old Muskoka Rowing Skiff.

A 1938/39 Seabird (left) and a flashy Peterborough have a conversation on the driveway.

Two classic all-cedar canoes partially through restoration. Note the wide ribs, bits of gunwale. Definitely worth the effort!

A flock of sailing canoes at last year's Paddler's Rendezvous. L-R: Chestnut, Georian Bay 12, Peterborough, Viking replica.

A Georgian Bay 16 with outriggers, loaded up and ready to fly. The outriggers disassemble so you don't have to drive down the highway like this unless you want to...

Inside, an antique launch is beginning a major restoration. Hanging from the ceiling are canoe moulds and several antique canoes in storage.  

A Georgian Bay 12 decked lapstrake canoe with a standard deck and round coaming.

Another Seabird starting restoration. Note where a porcupine has gnawed on the top of the transom!

Custom deck on a Georgian Bay 16, with inlay, hardwood trim, our curved stem handles, and round coaming. Nice yacht!

Lost in the Woods owner John Hupfield and a happy client takes a newly restored antique launch out for a test run.
