Build Your Own Canoe or Kayak

Dempster Boats is a wooden boat building shop in Georgetown, Ontario.  We build and sell small wooden boats, particularly canoes and kayaks, but mostly we help people to build their own boat.

Classes

Our canoe and kayak building classes take place in our fully equipped, bright, clean industrial shop.  Our classes are suitable for adults, youth groups or community organizations. Families with children age 12 and up are also welcome.

Repairs

Dempster Boats repairs all makes and models of canvas, cedarstrip and skin canoes including brands that no longer exist. We also repair kayaks.  

Supplies

We have kits available for many canoe and kayak models.  Dempster Boats also sells boat building supplies for canoe and kayak building. We manufacture all of our own wood components and can make custom replacement parts for your boat.

New Sales

Dempster Boats builds new boats on custom order. Please drop by our and look over our latest models.  We would be happy to provide a quote for a new canoe or kayak of your choice.
