Hi Colin,
Thanks for the photo's, and also the details of the book which I did
have then lost before I could order it!
As you may gather, both Dave and I are interested in constructional
details. It looks very fine on the water. Is that a leeboard near the
stern?

there are pics of coracle, canoeracle and scale curragh to look at. I
will try to add some curragh build photos when I get time. The design
and constructiopn details came from 'The Canvas Currach' , by Cian de
Butlear, ISBN 0-9549023-2-7. A magic little book, it includes photos,
plans and a DVD which shows a builder making a complete currach, and
using one to take the cows to the island and bring seaweed back, as
well as racing round the harbour. I bought it from Easons bookshop in
Ireland via their web site. Get it if you can. Have fun, Colin
