The Tlingit natives in Wrangell, Alaska held a Potlatch in 1940; and, as a part of the event, they activated Chief Shakes' canoe. This photo shows the 50' vessel in the Wrangell Harbor with Chief Shakes standing in the bow to the right. The replication of this canoe is one of the projects that Stikine River Historical Foundation will support. Photo, Courtesy, Wrangell Museum, Wrangell, Alaska.
