This blog is about various boat and environment related topics that I care to comment on. First and foremost, this blog is about skin on frame boats, their construction and use, as well as paddle and other stuff related to skin boat use.

Frilled Lizard Boat
Steve Kaspar gave me an old sail he had made along the lines of a George Dyson sail as featured in his book, Baidarka. I stuck it on the sailing baidarka and it reminded me of some kind of lizard I had seen pictures of before. Went on the internet and sure enough. The resemblance is remarkable. See below.
I wonder if the lizard like the boat can only sail downwind with this particular contraption. I actually haven't tried the sail yet, but I am sure that the lizard has tried his.
