Description
This course is aimed at providing tuition and support in the building of the Selkie: West Greenland kayak. Depending on the option chosen the course runs in varying time frames.
At the beginning of the course participants are provided with an overview of the process and some initial discussion of the tools and skills used. The course is carefully divided in to focused day by day tasks to ensure that the participant can complete the build within the allotted time to be able to take away their finely fashioned kayak at the close of the course. The aim is to leave with a finished kayak, but this is dependent on the participants progress over the initial six days.
