Table of contents:
It was the reconstruction of a
sewing technique
common in Russian Carelia up to the beginning of 19th century.
The design of the boat built was traditional for the
lake Vodlozero, and the boat,
consequently, is called "vodlozerka" after the name of the place. It was
the second version, built in August-November 1999 (the first was
finished in 1996, see
"Sewn boat homepage".)
