Congratulations! Y our new boat rep- resents the very best quality , craftsman- ship and technical innovation in the industry . With pr oper care your canoe or kayak will give you years of paddling enjoyment. W ith knowledgable use, it offers almost limitless paddling possi- bilities, at home or wherever your trav- els take you.
GENERAL SAFETY Paddling enables people of all ages and abilities to experience nature with unrivalled closeness and variety . Adventures range fr om brief outings to challenging treks, but even the simplest trip can quickly lead to danger if proper precautions are not taken.
Transpor T a Tion Paddling kayaks and canoes may be the most graceful way to explore our waters. But handling boats on land can be cumbersome. Thankfully , proper equipment makes transportation easy and safe.
If you must store your boat outside, we recommend you tie it down. Str ong winds can catch the underside, flip it and cause damage. Canoes should always be stored upside-down, even overnight. Set them on saw horses, blocks, slings or garage rafters if at all possible, as this will al- low the gunwales to carry the weight.
Rep aiR Y our canoe or kayak is built to last. W ith proper car e and maintenance, as described on the previous pages, your boat should give you and your family years of enjoyment. Though our canoes and kayaks are built to withstand years of use and abuse, mishaps can occur and your boat may at some point become dam- aged and need repair .
braces, they should be fitted to transmit body movements directly to the kayak. The Power Stroke: The basic paddle technique is a forward str oke. Place the blade in the water near your toes. Pull the blade back alongside the kayak approximately to your hip–a better way to think of it is pulling the kayak up to the blade.
| 10 EQUIPMENT RECOMMENDA TIONS The equipment necessary for kayaking and canoeing can vary according to the type of trip being taken. Some accessories you can’ t do without, like a paddle and PFD, while others may not be essential for every trip, but can play a large part in keeping you safe and making your trip more enjoyable.
