: I recently read an article on Baidarkas in April 2000 Scientific American
: by George Dyson. I am interested in testing the speed and efficiency
: of baidarkas with segmented keels, to see if this aspect of their design
: makes them faster for a science project. I would appreciate any information,
: plans, specific details that might help me in this endeavor. I have
: figured out a testing pool and a means of testing but am not sure how
: to design the test boats. Thanks.

Get the book "The Aleutian Kayak" by Wolfgang Brink. It has everything you need.
