Grew up in the wooden johnboats. Thought we got a major upgrade switching to aluminum, but still used the sculling paddle & oars.

Wooden boats. My Grandpa had to sink the boat one spring, after it had been out of water over a long winter. Seems he had to make the wood swell to prevent leaks, if I remember correctly what he told me.

I still have a couple of the French models in my old reel collection. They still run flawlessly. Gonna always love the sound they make.
