A mate and I found an old canoe in beautiful, if somewhat neglected, condition the other night in a paddock at his house.
It turned out to be a JAX marine plywood boat, with a flat bottom, solid skeg, and seats 2. Its basic construction and we're going to restore it, but i just wanted to get some information on the company, and all i can find is references to a 1967 nsw supreme court case. anyone remember them?
Any thing at all would be great. cheers, steve
Maybe you just found their getaway canoe :DQuote:
