Building a Whitehall Rowboat

Fermon Martin
Fermon Canoes started as the passion of one man for meticulous woodwork and the freedom found in the canoeing experience. His dedication and skill continue to this day with his handcrafted cedar strip canoes, rowboats and kayaks. Each is a brilliant crossing of rugged strength and careful art: lightweight, with no nails or ribs or space-age polymers at all to detract from the purity of design, each one unique and painstakingly made by hand.So when the blare of traffic and the shrill chirp of phones begin to wear on you, return to the simple life, if only for a moment, and be refreshed by timeless embrace of nature in a Fermon. It's a stroke of simplicity in a busy life.
