This course is designed specifically for those who paddle sit-on-top kayaks, and is essential for fishermen. Sure, anyone can get on and paddle - it's not difficult. But we will teach you 8 different paddle strokes so you have proper control of your kayak. Correct technique will reduce injury, and enable you to go further and faster without tiring so quickly. We will also cover rescues - how to get back on in deep water if you should fall off, and how to help your buddy if he gets into difficulty. Theory will cover trip planning, weather, gear, communications and safety issues.
Cost of the course is $195 and includes a subscription to the New Zealand Kayak Magazine .
