Making log boat in Kierikki

During their staff exchange visit 5 members from Exeter university supervised by Dr Linda Hurcombe and shipmakers Brian Cumby and Tom Monrd Hansen did in four days a log boat from beginning to testing in water. In those days they made an experiment testing dry log to a fresh one and fresh one was working. See prof. B.Bradleys report about staff exhange.
The experience was made partly during the Kierikki Stone Age markets 27.-28. July 2013. Before that on Fri 26 July in Kierikki was a "Day of the Scince" where Hurcombe, Bradley and Kamper where having a lectures.
Kierikki Stone Age markets have been in Kierikki Stone Age village for 10 years in the last weekend of July. The actions, wrestling, battle show, eating stone age food like grasshoppers, making ceramics etc. , has been done by Kuttelo group.
