The Boats
The following is a list of some of the traditional designs that we work with and their general characteristics:
West Greenland kayak Short-range hunting kayak that was used primarily for stalking and the pursuit of sea mammals such as seals, walrus and whales.
Upper Yukon River canoe A flat-bottomed "kayak-form" canoe.
Baidarka The Aleutian kayak Most skin-on-frame builders consider the Baidarka to be the ultimate traveling kayak.
Canadian canoe A skin-on-frame version of the classic canvas on cedar canoe.
Recovery kayak and North Alaska retrieval kayak A small, flat play -kayak version of the traditional retrieval kayaks found on the north coast of Alaska.
Pram dinghy A short rowboat with transoms at bow and stern.
Baffin Island kayaks Very stable with enormous gear carrying capacity.
Providence River boat This small rowing and sailing dinghy is a perfect day boat for poking around a bay with a friend.
King Island kayak Said to be the toughest of the traditional kayaks.
Rowboat I've built a number of rowboats for single rowers no longboats yet!
Netsilingmeot kayak Evolved for use primarily in fresh water.
Coracle Coracles I build for the sake of whimsy.
