Building a Greenland Kayak

Building a Greenland Kayak takes readers step-by-step through the construction process developed by the author and Mystic Seaport boatbuilders to teach their popular kayak-building classes at the Museum. The design is derived directly from surviving Greenland craft, five of which are featured in the appendix. Adapted for the use of simple hand tools and a description of how to make a Greenland-style paddle.
