Restoring an old Mad River Malecite 1/x

The boat was stored outside for a long time and not used much. Here it is still with the previous owner.
A red canoe lies on a meadow. The colour and wood of the boat are badly weathered. There are light-coloured stickers on the front of the boat; a Mad River logo and the word Malecite to the right of it.


The gunwales were eaten away by fungus and almost fell off by themselves. Some of the fittings are also very rotten. The laminate inside looks great.
A section from the edge of the canoe. A piece of gunwale is missing, the existing wood looks bad. The laminate inside looks good and a warning sticker is also in good condition.


Step 1: Remove seats, thwarts and gunwales
Step 2: sanding, a real shit job
An old, red canoe lying upside down in front of a brick wall. The boat is very weathered and quite white. On the right-hand side, one part has been worked on and is clearly redder.

Introduction - Hello & Welcome

Zuckerberg has now apparently burned the last bridges to the good side of the Force and wants to go to hell together with his rich friends, religious fundamentalists and other Nazis. In the hope that one or two brave souls will make their way out of the meta-molloch and into the fediverse, I am starting an attempt here to make myself findable for them.

There will be a lot of content here about canoeing, geese and other pleasant things and I look forward to a lively exchange.
