Mark Starr and QajaqUSA have organized another Arctic Boat Weekend at Mystic Seaport in Mystic Connecticut. Last year had a good turn out with a lot of skilled paddlers and beautiful boats. A good chance to meet other builders and paddlers and learn more about the origins of the kayak. The emphasis last year was on Greenland techniques as it looks to be again this year. I would like to see some more representation of Alaskan and Aleut type boats.
