Context (CMS Context)
Made in 1957; Collected by: Roth.G.K in 1957: Proportions and detail accurately represented, but the platform is too short in length and too broad for this size of canoe; the float is rather long for this length of hull. The mast should be longer, and its top section is too long compared with the shaft

Z 30932 was found in box 48.M.4, but seems to belong to this canoe- the colour and varnish are the same.
