Description
-
This image shows a model of the Greenlandic kayak, which is longer and thinner than other kayaks from across the Arctic. Such a design allows for increased speed and agility while moving through ice-filled waters. Included in this model are miniature versions of a hunter's harpoon and Greenlandic-style paddles.
