How far can I canoe in 1 hour?
Most canoeists travel at about 2 m.p.h..
Do canoes and kayaks tip easily?
Staying centered and keeping a low center of gravity are important to stability. Although tipping over is rare, if you do tip over, the canoe or kayak will float and be able to support you.
If the canoe does tip over, do you come and get us?
No. Float the canoe or kayak to the bank and slowly pull it out of the water on it’s side. This will allow the water to drain out. You will then be able to get back in and continue paddling. Boats not returned will be charged an additional $35 retrieval fee.
Do you rent for off site use?
Yes. Rentals are available for use on Class 1 and Class 2 waterways. We reserve the right to limit rentals during times of high water or heavy rain forecasts. We do not supply blocks, racks, or tie downs. We do not rent 3 seater canoes for off site use.
