build an emergency kayak

April 18th, 2007 · No Comments

Warren Long saw the 4lb Alpacka raft (US$800+) but wants instead to try building a kayak on a wilderness trip.

(He watches Survivorman on TV.)

Warren’s looking at the Grip Clip Kayak! ($25)

You can build a kayak of green willow shoots, a blue tarp in just four hours!

You’d strap the paddle to your ultralight pack. Or carve one from a fallen tree.
