PIROGUE/CAJUN SKIFF Model
The Pirogue Model is a very traditional bayou
boat, long popular in the Mississippi Delta and other Southeastern backwaters.
The Pirogue can be built from 12' to 16' in length and can be of a
double-pointed canoe style (known as the Pirogue), or a flat-sterned skiff style
(known as a Cajun Skiff). Instructions for all of these variations are
included in the plans.
The Pirogue is a special use boat and does require some attention from the user,
but once you get the hang of it, you can pole the boat standing and zip it into
spots that no other boat will go. It's great for getting into those secret
fishing holes under the brush.
Requires no special tools or skills, and built with materials commonly available
at local home centers. This is our quickest and easiest boat to build.
