RE: 25,000 year old human foot prints found in Mexico

I think one could not possibly cross the Atlantic in a conoe by shoring up on sea ice. The stormy nature of the Atlantic and the cold of sea ice margin means any one who tries probably would die of exposure and swamping. I think some form of at least partially enclosed boat is essential.

I am not saying skin boats are simple. But humans have been sewing cloth for a long time, and also making small wooden and bone implements like bow, arrow, and spear shafts. I suspect proper boats or canoes made of animal skin for shell and wood/bone for frame probably existed for at least as far back as middle paleolithic.
