Sireco II Creighton, Saskatchewan 1967 History photo courtesy of P. Fraser The "Lake of the Woods" is a massive lake encompassing two Canadian provinces and the state of Minnesota, boasting 65,000 miles of shoreline and 14,500 islands, and so George Narcisse Giguere built a larger boat to access his "Camp". It was a 25' closed canopy inboard, known as "Sireco" (circa 1949), named after Echo Bay, where his "Camp" was located. He experimented with larger boats and in 1967 launched a 42' aluminum boat for his own use. It was named "Sireco 2". History text courtesy of P. Fraser
