He built a detailed model of the Canadiana

Gary Jensen started with his hobby a decade ago. Looking at his recreation of the Canadiana, it's obvious he has this boat making thing down. He says "it's like a chess game-you have to start on the lower deck and you have to plan ahead" His new model is on display at the Buffalo Harbor Museum along with a number of his other creations. The Canadiana took him 1800 hours over a year and a half. He built it from scratch. The Buffalo Harbor Museum celebrates the history of the Great Lakes.  You can get more info about the Buffalo Harbor Museum at their website.
