In Response To: Re: Inuit rules for kayak design. (Nick Schade)

Nick,

I just picked up a set of three books called "The Little Kayak Book I, II, and III.

They are on surveys of 21 museum kayaks in England and Denmark. They also have detailed drawings of paddles and equipment. These are all authentic kayaks with the exception of one made for a European Arctic expedition and a semi-replica. The paddles are feathered and unfeathered. They also have the history of these boats as far as is known.

Have you seen or read these books before?

Ian
