Bronze age boat recreated at loch (UK)
A team of history and woodwork experts have teamed up to build a replica Bronze Age logboat at Loch Tay.
The group will work with the tools and techniques that were used about 3,000 years ago.
They will make the boat from a single Douglas Fir trunk, measuring about 12m in length.
The project was inspired by the discovery of a logboat in the loch dating back to 1500 BC and another one in the River Tay dating to 1000 BC.
