Someone on this forum told me a year or more ago that Skip Snaith's book Umiak was a must for people like me, but it appeared to be out of print (sellers listed on Amazon will let you have used copies for $90+). And so I was delighted to stumble across this: http://www.rockisland.com/~kyak/ubook.html

Turns out it is still available from Snaith himself. Hallelujah. Not that there are unlimited copies or anything, but these are new and sell at the cover price. Mine's on the way. Hurry up, Santa!

I think Snaith's book would be worth even $90 for anybody planning to build an umiak for the first time. My Angyapik came out great!
