I have never made a Greenland style boat. Normally I would avoid Instructables like the plague. This doesn't look like a bad author.
I'd be concerned if you can't find the sizing on a major piece of structure.
Check out Tom Yost's site with SOF fuselage style boats. There are Greenland style there. www.yostwerks.com/WoodSOFMain.html

Good luck
