Final in a series of 11 videos from the Jayhawk Institute describing how to make a traditional Northwest Coast Indian Canoe from a cedar tree or log. The Canoe Legacy Project provides insights into both traditional and modern techniques of how to shape, carve and steam (spread) the cedar log into an elegant seaworthy canoe. A Salish style canoe, typically used on the quiet waters of The Salish Sea (incl. Puget Sound) was chosen for the project..
The NW Coast Canoe Video series is supported and partially funded by the Suquamish, The Port Gamble S'Klallam and the Puyallup Tribes. The Suquamish Museum has a 300 year-old Salish Style Canoe on display, in addition to many other Salish cultural art and artifacts.

I thought my Ranger bass boat was beautiful but this is georgios and I'd live to man one of those paddles for a ride.......Beautiful boat and tour community coming together like that to witness and then the ceremony to crisin the canoe and name it would be so great to see......I goes to the Indian nation in Oklahoma or did when I was a kid to the pow wow and those were so nice to witness. Great video and I watched all of them.......

Point of pride and accomplishment! Exposure to this should be an integral part of our K-12 educational system. I hope there are apprentices in the wings to carry this on. Thank you for this series.

Fantastic series of videos to show this whole process in detail. I have used this for a few years in my teaching of coastal native american cultures to 4th graders. They always enjoy the insights!

Congratulations a fantastic canoe your people are very lucky to have the skilled men and women who can still make these beautiful boats, whatever you do don't let the skills dissappear teach and encourage the kids it looked like hard work, but great fun. My wife and i live in Highland Perthshire Scotland so there is not much chance of us ever being involved in building or even having the chance to paddle one, we have a 17 foot Old Town touring canoe, it's plastic but we love it Scotland has hundreds of lochs and rivers, i am 60 years old and i love the happy times on our canoe, we have grandsons and one due in March so i hope we can teach them what we know. Great videos keep it up . Happy New Year from Scotland.

Awesome video series, I learned a lot! Just a few questions. What was the total time it took to finish this particular canoe? Also what is the rough estimate price to complete a project like that? Thanks

@epsvideos 7 лет назад

Edgar Madrid This project took about six months which included a lot of training sessions and coordination of volunteers, etc. Total cost is elusive because of a lot of volunteer time and the fact that the Port Gamble S'Klallam Tribe gave a price reduction for the ceremonial cedar log. A fair estimate of cost without those factors would be around $100K

@edgarmadrid8890 7 лет назад

Executive Productions-Seattle Wow that's amazing but not surprising considering the work put in. Thanks so much for the replies. Cheers!

I am being offered a cedar tree that is described to me as being between 6 and 8 feet in diameter. I am wanting to make a canoe out of it. Is there any chance the institute or any other group would be interested in using it for instructional purposes?

@epsvideos 8 лет назад

That does sound interesting. Where is the log located and can we see a photo of it?

@bigtopwilly 8 лет назад

I have yet to see it, but it is in Kitsap county. I would be happy to send a picture as soon as I can get one. The owner is having a hard time finding someone to fall the tree because of it'd size and closeness to the house.

When I first started to learn about my culture and my people, an Elder pulled me aside and told me about our Longboats, he said that one day he sees me building these and because of that I must remember one important thing. And that is the Longboats are never painted on both sides, only one side gets painted and the reason for that is when we go to war we only show the black charred side so as the nation being raided doesn't know who attacked them. When we come in showing our colors and crests we come in peace. The same goes with our paddles.

Very interesting and would make sense....thanks for sharing.
