>>I'll have my boat skinned in a week or so and it occured to me that I'd
better start boning up on a few things before I hit the water. I hope to
get some instruction at some point, but in the meantime can anyone recommend
a good book about kayaking technique and essentials?

   I think the best book any newbie paddler can read is "Sea Kayaker Deep
Trouble" by Matt Broze and George Gronseth. It may not help your paddling
technique, per se, but it just might help keep you sober enough to survive
the experience until you can get some instruction :-)
