Harvey,
I guess either definition of "lister" would fit, depending on the time of
day and the location.
That's a mighty fine looking boat, which isn't much of a surprise. I hope
you'll put up a comparison test between this boat and the British Museum
Disko Bay kayak once you have it in the water.
Regards,
Phil
