Wooden Boat People

boat builder Leo Cannaday
Just thought I would ask any of you boat builder folks who live in the Eugene/Springfield area if you've heard of a db builder by the name of Leo Cannaday?
From what I was told by the original owner of the db I bought from him in 2001 is that Leo worked for Woodie Hindman and that Woodie had left him the plans for the boat.
The boat has 10 ribs and is a McKenzie double ender with a transom and was built in 1968. Cody at Tatman told me when I was down in Springfield buying a trailer that 10 ribs was one sign of a Hindman designed boat.
I'd sure like to find some more history on Leo and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Mitchell,
I don't know the answer to this but the person that might is Roger Fletcher, he is a member here and a drift boat historian. You might want to send this question to him via the email link. I'll keep my fingers crossed that he catches this post and has some info.
