The kayak appeared in Greenland nearly 4,000 years ago. It was an essential time in the life of the Inuit, who used it to hunt seals.
The umiak (Danish Konebad) is a large traditional Inuit rowing boat used for whaling or, during the summer season, with women at the oars, as a means of coastal transportation.
The umiak were loaded with children, tents, summer utensils, and sometimes dogs and returned at the end of the summer heavily laden with provisions and meat for the winter.
