Doug Hylan’s sail-and-oar Little Crab and Mike O’Brien’s pirogue-like Six-Hour Canoe are our featured Boat Profiles while TotalFair fairing compound and 7 Seas 3-Eye Sneakers get a close look in our reviews. A do-it-yourself plywood boat cart is the subject of our Technique feature. We take a Maine-Coast weekend cruise from Bass Harbor to Pond Island and back and our editor recalls almost losing his canoe to a landslide on Chesapeake Bay’s Kent Island. Our Reader Built Boat is actually six boats, the work of a repeat boatbuilder in Florida.
