As a guide, hold your arms out to the sides then bend them to 90 degrees at the elbow. This is about how far your hands should be from each other as you grasp the paddle. Remember you only want to hold the paddle, not choke it. Over grip can tire your arms. You may notice some paddlers using off-set or feathered blades rather than blades that are on the same plane. Feathered blades are sometimes used to lessen wind resistance, but are largely a matter of personal preference. For beginners a stra

| 05 | 05 GENERAL SAFETY Paddling enables people of all ages and abilities to experience nature with unrivalled closeness and variety. Adventures range from brief outings to challenging treks, but even the simplest trip can quickly lead to danger if proper precautions are not taken. No matter what type of canoe or kayak you’re using, there are basics every boater should know. Always wear an appropriately rated and sized personal fl oatation device (PFD). Learn your craft: start slow and seek pro

This will keep the decks from being distorted. Do not use the strap eyes, carrying handles or scupper holes to hang your boat. Do not store your boat on its hull. If the hull warps, your kayak will not perform as it should. Use a cockpit cover to keep dust and critters out. Attention to proper storage will help ensure years of excellent service from your canoe or kayak.

Storage is key! Above all else, store your kayak out of the sun. Waxes and protectants are simply not enough–they will eventually wash off the boat into our waterways. Signs of sun damage include fading, a loss of flexibility and cracking that cannot be repaired. Keep your kayak or canoe inside or under cover, especially if you live in a sunny climate. A tarp properly suspended above the boat will protect the boat from ultraviolet light. Do not cover your boat by laying a tarp directly on it. Wi
