An Eskimo Canoe is very easily made by pointing the ends very sharply and hollowing out a hole in the centre (Fig. 158). Fig. 159 shows an Egyptian Dahabieh. For this boat it is better to use four corks, as two sails are carried.

In the Double Canoe (Fig. 160) the two boats are joined by a thin piece of wood, A. A slanting hole is drilled in A for the mast. Mast and yards are best made of cane. These little boats look wonderfully effective on the water.
