    Hi all this is a little project I will be doing up over the winter and I'm hoping to get a bit of info on it if possible, I believe it was built by Ernest Lawrence and he had some connection to the scouts in north Co.Dublin and also had a business called "Lawrence canoes and kayaks" in the 70's & 80's but I can't seem to find much info on this 4 man one so any help would be great. There is a 3 man one on adverts.ie called a Dingo maybe this one had the same name. She is in a bit of a state but as she is Irish made I think she deserves a new life, so again any help with her or of Ernest will add to the story :)

    Ernie pass away within the last few years. I think Mark Downey, The canoe centre / Rough stuff bought some or all his licences. Or try talk to Tony Maher, Kemakraft, also involved with SLCC in Leixlip, he worked with Ernie during that time frame.
