The Dugout Log Canoe
|
The dugout log canoe was a boat that anyone could build. All you
needed was a big tree, an adze (an ax-like tool that dates back nearly 4,000
years), and time. You didn't need to know anything about
shipbuilding. Shipbuilding is a skill that required training that few
of the colonists had.

But the dugout log canoe was also very limited by how little it could
carry, and how far it could travel. (How far would you like to
paddle a canoe?)
