PPeregrine- an exclusive 17’6″ Atkinson Traveler built by
Rollin Thurlow and Jerry Stelmok.
In 1975 in Lubec Maine, Jerry and Rollin, fresh out of boatbuilding school purchased the small Island Falls Canoe company from Clint Tuttle. Together for a few formative years and then separately they have pursued the craft of building, restoring, teaching, and writing about the exquisite traditional water craft. Now in their combined 100 years of experience they have come together and built “Peregrine” incorporating the best practices and detailing they have collectively developed.

Welcome to my company’s website! I hope that you easily find the information that you are looking for, but if not, please contact me at the shop. I do have some help in the shop from one or two highly skilled part-time staff members and we can all answer your questions!
The Northwoods Canoe Company is located in Atkinson, Maine, where I have been developing hand-crafted wooden canoes for almost 48 years. My shop specializes in new wooden canoes, restoration services, and building materials. All of my new canoes and restorations are custom built. Over the years, my shop has developed a world-wide reputation for the highest quality and dependable work.
Please review the site for more information concerning the canoes, the shop’s history, our blog and the “CANOECAM“, which gives a snapshot of what’s going on in the shop every 20 seconds!
Thank you for visiting.—
