My DH made one about 7 yrs. ago. I did the caning on for the seat. I guess that is what you call it. I was amazed as he built it. I never thought I would say a canoe was beautiful but these homemade ones are. He has a kayak started but hasn't worked on it in quite some time. I think your DH is a little bit bigger. Our only has a middle seat which is okay with me because I don't go in canoes in Florida with the gators.
