New east Greenland SOF
Thursday, June 4, 2009, 4 comments
The king of kayak replicas Harvey Golden, has done it again - a new version of the east Greenland museum kayak from Haag he surveyed in 1998. As always he builds historically correct, using authentic materials, methods and recreating authentic shapes as far as possible. Thus the sheerline levels off towards the ends (in contrast to my Black Pearl, where I have allowed myself a little "beautification", that many, but not, all appreciate). Harveys kayak is nr 87 in Kayaks of Greenland.
...and on a nother note: a daredevil named Tyler Bradt has paddled down a 186 ft waterfall, shattering his earlier record of 127 ft - as it seems without other consequences than a broken paddle! Video here.
