My dad and his family are from all the way down the bayou in Terrebonne parish. Their family design included a rake for the same reason, to prevent a suction in the mud. Sadly the last known pirogue that they built recently perished. It lasted from 1972 until last year! It was very well used I might add.
Proud to be from Louisiana. ❤️
Excellent, thanks for posting this!
Just finished building a cypress wood strip pirogue. Thanks for posting this video. A dying art that I don't see much of.
Where did you get the plans?
