Building Skin-On-Frame Boats teaches novice and experienced builder alike how they can build a lightweight, beautiful boat by combining a simple and elegant ancient technique with modern tools and materials. Fold-out drawings for eight different boats are included... four kayaks, a pram, a riverboat, and two canoes. The step-by-step boat is a Greenland kayak, and those techniques apply to all of the designs included.
The book is divided into four sections:
History
