Hi Charlie,
Well, that didn't take long... (And I guess I'm not the only night owl...) Anyway, here is the response from the bamboo experts, (in quotes and between the asterisks)... ******************************************* "Hello-
We have never seen one but it absolutely could be done. If one had a jig for canoes and built it up with strips of cured sanded bamboo (as we do for our furniture) it would be rather easy I think. Once encased in clear epoxy it would be one of the strongest and beautiful boats around. It wouldn�t need much internal framework, and what there was could be bamboo also. Sounds like a great project!
Best,

Hope this helps!
Alan
