Model of a kayak with prominent upturned ends that are distinctive of Inuvialuit kayaks. The frame is made from wood, and the cover is made from several pieces of hide stretched over the frame and stitched together. Deck lashings made from braided sinew for holding hunting implements are attached fore and aft of the cockpit, and a lance holder made from bone or antler is attached near the front end. The lashing in front of the cockpit has a bead attached to it, possibly representing a rest for a lance or harpoon used in conjunction with the holder. The model includes a two-bladed paddle and a throwing board, both of which are made of wood. The paddle is decorated with red and black lines made using ochre and charcoal encircling the blades. The throwing board has ochre lines on its upper surface.
