"What's
a Nice Little "Wassen" (Traditional Japanese Boat) Doing
in a Place Like Ewan Slough?"
What
is a "Wassen"?
Charles Moore
recently
surveyed a boat on
Westham Island. It is a little big (a 40 ton fish packer),
but it has some interesting Japanese construction features and there
is a
little story to be told around it about BC boatbuilding in the first
part of the last century.
