Building the Greenland Kayak : A Manual for Its Contruction and Use
Chris Cunningham,Christopher Cunningham
Proudly paddle a kayak you've built yourself for less than $300 in a few weekends and evenings of work. Known for its simplicity, elegance, performance, and speed the Greenland kayak has a low profile that minimizes windage, and its narrow beam makes it well behaved in rough water. Here are step-by step-step-by-step instructions for a lashed-frame, fabric-covered, custom-fitted Greenland kayak, using inexpensive, easy-to-find materials and common woodworking tools. This easy-to-use manual shows you how to do lumber milling, fastening, rib bending, and measuring. Included are instructions for making a Greenland paddle, paddling clothing, float bags, skegs, and more, plus pointers on paddling skills, kayak rolling, and children's kayaks.
