Well, not suggesting that we wait until we find two hulls that fit inside each other, perfectly preserved. Simply that one would assume that this culture would continue building boats in the manner that got them across the N. Atlantic. Could be similarities in design or materials if we had any examples at all. Points alone, unconvincing, points and boats, getting there, know what I mean? We're well beyond the range of where we find boats though aren't we. It would be conjecture, but one I'd be more comfortable with if similarities between the earliest known boats between the two cultures existed (even if the earliest known boats came a fair bit later). Oldest boat we have is what 7-10k years old? I don't think that it's likely that it is a prototype, so, I'm willing to go farther back..lol. We'd likely be talking dugouts though here wouldn't we, not skin boats? What do we find in the way of specialized tools for making a dugout (because those would be likely to survive)?
