Umiak Posted on October 26, 2023 by Jack & Barbra Donachy This umiak – a traditional whaling boat, the hull made of Bearded Seal skin stretched tight and lashed over wooden ribs – was positioned on a rack, allowing me to make a photograph of the inside, upside down. Point Hope, Alaska, March 27, 2012.

Great workmanship!
We got to watch a friend make the ribs for a boat like this. Amazing craftsmanship.
