New Dock and New Canoes

We have been very busy at Clearwater the last month. Some of the changes have been big and some not as big. We decided to repaint the boats since they looked like this.
Then after getting the boats sanded and painted we didn't want to put them out at the dock since we knew that they would just get destroyed again. The dock had nails and stuff sticking out the sides. So we went and got some tires and lined all the docks with tires. Now the boats won't get beat up by wind and waves banging them against the dock!
After the tires went on we went and put new cleats in so that they all matched and boats could be more securely tied down. I thought the finished product looked pretty good.
We also got some new canoes. Last week we sent one of the staff to Mount Iron to get 4 new Wenonah Minnesota II's and two Souris River 3 man canoes. New canoes look great and will be heavily used this summer.
