Wish to break free from tandem lake paddling?
Wish for your boating independence?

At the one evening clinic, you will learn the basic stroke techniques,  touring skills, packing, safety procedures and (optional) self rescue a capsize boat. As a bonus. learn about the various boat designs; experiencing the different hull shapes & length will give you a better understanding on your kayak purchase.
