Using select Canadian lumber, I craft custom canoes that you can paddle for generations.
BUILDING A CANOE
Does your canoe need a tune up? Are you in the market for a new canoe? At Cook Craft Canoes, I take pride in superior craftsmanship. Using premium materials like world-class white cedar, premium oval head brass tacks, Pettit marine varnish and a 100-year-old linseed oil based filler recipe, I create custom canoes that will look and perform beautifully for generations to come. I provide quality products and repairs to those in search of exceptional service. I will help you prepare for your next canoeing adventure or paddle around the lake. When you are looking for a unique adventure in Muskoka, then you need the unique look, fashion and function of a Cook Craft canoe.
When you come to Cook Craft, you can choose from a variety of classic and vintage molds on which I will build you a quality, handcrafted, gorgeous canoe that you can be proud of. My custom canoe molds include:

- 13.5′ Clarence Bouges
- 13.5′ Clarence Bouges Square Stern

** any of these canoes can be shortened or lengthened by as much as 1 ft
