Brian,

Amazon lists this book *used* for US$95. I don't think I'll be buying *that*
one :-)

Wolfgang
Brinck's book "The Aleutian Kayak" is a good place to start.

Brian,

Now *there's* a hatful of good information in a small sentence :-)

Thanks for the references. I'll get them all up.

Well, if you have a good supply of willow and the desire, go for it. Wolfgang
Brinck's book "The Aleutian Kayak" is a good place to start. You might also
want to
join the Baidarka email list and start hanging out on the Kayak Building
Forum
(www.kayakforum.com) and the Greenland forum at Qajaq USA (www.qajaqusa.org).

I agree, just build the thing and try. What could it cost?? 10 bucks
for a tarp and 5 more for lashings... Of course you could soak strips
of the switches and lash the whole thing with willow strips too! Post
us some pics when you are done...
