To the fans of the E.M. White Canoe Company, Gilman Falls, ME; I send greetings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So I don’t know how it happened, but I mixed up my stories. I am trying to figure out how the canoe ended up in a burn pile, because it didn’t. That story is too weird to be made up, so somewhere in the world, a wooden canoe was saved from a conflagration. No idea when or where, but it wasn’t an E.M. White, and it wasn’t Jerry who saved it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I received a nice email from Mr. Stelmok himself today with some of the back story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hi Darren,<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
That is a nice tribute to E.M. White and our work at Island Falls Canoe that you posted and nicely illustrated with your selection of photos.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019ve obviously been a big White fan for a long time and have been fortunate to be able to build my life around the E.M. White tradition. <\/em>I feel however that I should provide the real story behind the development of the Willow and WilloWisp.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Uh oh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I went back to my archives and found Volume 2, Number 4 of Canoesport Journal<\/em>, a now defunct magazine that died back in the early 90s. I still read mine for the good articles and the anachronisms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
