Description: | Model illustrating the sewing pattern of the lapstrake Keuruu boat. This sewing method was used on the fragmentary boat finds from Keuruu and nearby villages, 300 km north of Helsinki. These finds- from our boats have not been dated. The trake to strake sewing method is one of discontinuous lashing with a 'thread' of pine root fibre. However, a different method is found on vertical plank joints - this appears to be the same as the Lapp (Sami) method, illustrated by model AOA0863.
