The Lone Pine Canoe Company based in Bracebridge, Ontario, is owned by Paul Burns who takes a personal interest in each project that enters the company’s workshop. Paul built his first canoe when he was still in high school. Before starting his own company, he spent 12 years learning the trade from experienced canoe builders.
In 2013, Paul opened his own workshop, which specialises in canoe repairs and restorations. The company is a member of the Wooden Canoe Builder’s Guild and Wooden Canoe Heritage Association which are both committed to preserving the craft and heritage of wooden canoe building. Services offered by Lone Pine include full canvas replacement and cedar-strop canoe refinishing.
