THANKS!

We are a small publishing house with a specialized output that would make a mass-market publisher shake his head in bewilderment.

Our sales of books, plans and DVD's , largely thru this web site, have been sought out by customers from the US, Alaska, Europe and Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Our publications are known for good writing, high production values and intensive informative content.

Thanks to all our unique customers for their growing support and encouragement!!

Possible projects include a boat-sewing DVD, a history of Nunivak Island boatbuilding, and a book about Skip's Qayaq research and building trips over the years to several Alskan Native villages.
