. The complete American and Canadian sportsman's encyclopedia of valuable instruction. Camping; Fishing; Hunting. Aan in fact any of them illustrated herein or those mentioned in the "Fisherman's ; Many of these boats are supplied with air chambers, ren- dering them practical life boats. These steel boats are built of heavily galvanized "AppoUo" steel. Each strip is cut from a special, pattern and made to conform without strain to the beautiful curves that distinguish this line of boats from all other craft, and gives to them that grace- ful poise in the water that isdistmctive, and draws forth praise from all who see them. The lapping, seaming or grooving of the steel strips is by a new process, used only in these boats. By its wse leak- age is absolutely impossible. The steel boat will last forever. It cannot rot. The heavy galvaniz ing protects it from rusting, and it is so staunch that a blow from an axe that would fell an ox will hardly dent a good steel boat. They have been se verely tried out in stumpy water where wood boats had been stove in numerous times; they have been taken down rocky rapids in trout streams and came through uninjured, where a wooden boat of equal dimensions could not have been made strong enough to stand the knocks and jars. They will not check or crack nor get out of shape, because there-is no strain anywhere, all the pretty curves are natural, and they have a much handsomer, cleaner appearance than the wooden boat that must inevitably become water-soaked and Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Buzzacott, Francis Henry, 1861- [from old catalog].
