NODDY is looking for a few good boardmen. We plan on sailing most of the weekends this year and consistent experienced crew makes the difference!

Kyle Leaverton, a boardman from Mystery and film student at Wilmington University, is making a documentary about the Chesapeake Bay Log Canoes as a whole and need yours help!

Kyle is looking to interview anyone involved in Log Canoeing, especially those who have owned and sailed for many years. He is also looking for any pictures and stories, which I’m sure there are quite a lot out there! And if anyone has any footage/video of a Log Canoe under sail or a race that would be awesome as well.

Kyle will be available from April 3rd to April 10th to interview anyone interested in participating in this project.

Please contact him at,

Update: [06/20/2010]

Jay Dee is all finished and was luanhced friday June 19th at the MRYC, she is sitting on her trailer and Canoes Harbor awaiting the start of the racing season.

The mighty Jay Dee was taken to Campbell’s Boat Yard in Oxford hauled out of the water flipped over and stripped of her fiberglass in the effort to remove excess water and preserve her for generations to come. The project will take most of the winter and is very exciting for the fleet to keep the Canoes maintained and racing!

Check back often as I will be updating the slide show as the progress continues..

From Duke Adams,

“John West, foretender and boardman on Patricia and then Oliver’s gift for over 35 years died early January 2010 from pancreatic cancer. He was a great friend, crew mate, and honest gentleman and will be missed by all that knew him.
