Should not be a problem at all with a well made scarf. Try not to have a joint where a hole for a seat or thwart would compromise it.

Got one of the inner gunnels glued on tonight. Was going to do both inners, but not enough clamps.
Inside varnish is done. My first boat I used Epifanes. This time around I went with Total Boat Gleam. Epifanes is great, but with the size of this boat, looking to save a few bucks. Nice thing with the Gleam is you can hot coat it. They say you can do three coats a day, so that’s what I did. 
Well she’s pretty much done. Still need to add loops to the lining holes, and add portage pads. Waiting game for ice out now. 
Looks beautiful. You should be proud of what you have accomplished.

Outstanding! Nicely done.
Beautiful canoe, such nice craftsmanship, I hope it gives you many days of happy tripping.
BTW, Nice looking shop.

It looks great, and just in time for paddling season. Now you will need a "Maine Guide Paddle" if you don't have one already. A pole will be a fun addition too.
