Description: In the early days of the Pacific before the advent of the European small craft, thousands of beautiful canoes were built by Pacific Islanders, and in every case they fulfilled the needs of the people who built them* They certainly varied in shape and size, and their sails or paddles were shaped in
many different siyles, but the finished canoe itself was in every case as good as the builder could make it with the raw material that he had at hand.
This raw material limited his efforts, but it did not limit his care and perseverance, for the various methods of building canoes all over the Pacific speak TOlumes for the wonderful skill of these truly natural boatbuilders*
If the Pacific Islander had had access to the finished material and hardware of the European he would no doubt have developed along the lines of the orthodox boatbuiMer but without these aids he has been oonfined to primitive methods and primitive ideas* Let us therefore discuss the various fastenings, materials and tools used in the construction of a small wooden vessel, and find out why one is used instead of the other and how it is used.
