A few minutes on the water in our new West Greenland kayak

A quick preview of our completely redesigned West Greenland Kayak. Based on the CMC-IV-375 Greenlandic hunting kayak stored at the Canadian Museum of History, this early 20th century West Greenland hunting kayak is surprisingly versatile. The moderate length makes it a playful, controllable kayak that is noticeably quicker than longer boats due to the reduced wetted surface. It sits low enough in the water to tackle advanced greenland rolls, but still high enough to be useful as a day-trip sea kayak. Additionally, the deeper than normal foot area combined with my own framing adjustments make this a kayak that is significantly more comfortable than the original while still remaining true to the dimensions and classic lines of the original.

This kayak was redesigned from the ground up in the fall of 2021. The new version improves comfort, stability, paddling performance, and is now available in 11 sizes to fit paddlers from child size to 220lbs!
