In pursuit of a craft for fishing and exploring the secluded lakes and streams of Northern Minnesota, the author has created Ripple; a sturdy, stable, comfortable and attractive canoe that can be built from four 16' 2x4s, fiberglass fabric and epoxy resin. If a cedar strip canoe is outside of your time, temperament, and price range, you may find the planked construction method described in this book to be an option well worth considering. Besides including the complete plans and step by step instructions, the author goes a step further and details the construction of a trailer and hitch system for pulling the canoe behind a bicycle.For about $300 and 2-3 hours per day, for a total of about 40 hours, those with basic woodworking and fiberglassing skills can create this canoe and trailer, and perhaps soon find themselves making another one.

Mark's tales take us on a 60 year journey, from suburban Minneapolis to the heart of Africa as a Peace Corps volunteer in the early1980s. Along the way we discover what we have lost, and what the Central African villagers can help us to reclaim. With food as the central thread, this book is a sometimes humorous, sometimes poignant reminder of what is truly important in life. Mark showcases some of his ideas and products that have helped them become more self-reliant; things like fish farming, hydroponics, hoop house gardening, raising chickens, raised bed gardening, composting, and even canoe building. In all that he does, the lessons learned in the Central African Republic, and the appropriate technology approach to problem solving, guide his course.
