Dear Paul & All, 
John MacDonald of the Igloolik Arctic Research center made it.  We worked from the same drawings at about the same time.  Its a stunningly beautiful kayak-- shame it didn't have a more prominent role in the movie.  The film is incredible beyond words; a remarkable depiction of the culture and land that (however indirectly) gave us kayaks. 
Best, Harvey
