West Greenland Kayak

I gave up drinking for Lent and all i got was this stupid Kayak. Built in my bedroom without plans using traditional methods and measurements from the paddler's height, center of gravity, etc. I should also mention that there is no glue, screws, or nails; just pegs, tenons, and lashing. I steam bent the wood, and formed the hull by eye. Thats right... I'm cooler than your dad. I'll make a new post when i add the skin.
