• The Canadian is a lightweight, mostly open-top boat, where you
sit or kneel to move forward with the aid of single-blade paddles.
Canadians, like kayaks, are a type of canoe, and depending on
model and design, have sufficient space for baggage and
passengers. The classic Canadian is not so much sports equipment
but is a means of transport. The possible loads depend on the
length and width of the boat and on the height of the sides. You
should bear in mind, however, that depending on the load, its
handling properties can change significantly as it becomes less
maneuverable.
• Most present-day canoeing is done as or as a part of a sport or recreational activity. In
some parts of Europe canoeing refers to both canoeing and kayaking, with a canoe being
called an Open canoe. A few of the recreational forms of canoeing are canoe camping
and canoe racing such as canoe sprint and canoe marathons. Other forms include a wide
range of canoeing on lakes, rivers, oceans, ponds and streams.
• The summer Olympics include canoeing competitions. Canoe slalom (previously known
as whitewater slalom) is a competitive sport with the aim to navigate a decked canoe or
kayak through a course of hanging downstream or upstream gates on river rapids in the
fastest time possible. It is one of the two kayak and canoeing disciplines at the Summer
Olympics, and is referred to by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) as
Canoe/Kayak Slalom. The other Olympic canoeing discipline is canoe sprint.
• In his lifetime, according to the Guinness Book of World Records, Verlen Kruger paddled
the most miles (over 100,000 miles) of anyone in the sport.[4]
• Canoeing is an activity which involves paddling a canoe with a single-
bladed paddle. Common meanings of the term are limited to when
the canoeing is the central purpose of the activity. Broader meanings
include when it is combined with other activities such as canoe
camping, or where canoeing is merely a transportation method used
to accomplish other activities. Most present-day canoeing is done as
or as a part of a sport or recreational activity. In some parts of Europe
canoeing refers to both canoeing and kayaking, with a canoe being
called an open canoe.
Absolutely essential fixtures for a Canadian include floating bodies and
ample catching loops in a robust material fore and aft on the canoe. In the
event that the boat capsizes you must be able to take a grip of these easily.
There should also be a rope attached to each of these catching loops of
about four to five meters in length: With this rope you can hold the boat,
tow it or if capsized, pull it back to land. Inside the boat, on the other hand,
there should be no loose ropes because there is a danger that if it capsizes,
you could get caught up in these and not escape from them in good time.
The safest way is to keep ropes in a throw-bag – this has proved to be a life-
saver, particularly in whitewater. The throw-bag is equipped with a long,
heavy-duty floatable rope; it floats and is usually in neon colors. Persons
whose boat has capsized can be saved with a throw-bag, simply by throwing
it to them.
The width of the Canadian canoe and especially of its underside
determines its stability against capsizing – an important factor for
beginners and for families with children! The broader the boat and its
underside, the flatter the bottom, the more stable is the vessel in the
water. Some Canadian canoes have a flat V-bottom for a high level of
stability; top maneuverability is a feature of the whitewater Canadians
and fast touring boats because of their semicircular undersides
• It covers all branches of the sport from recreational activities to canoe
slalom; wildwater racing; flatwater sprint racing and marathon racing;
canoe sailing; canoe polo; surf kayaking and canoeing; and extreme
racing (including the international event on the Glen Nevis in
Lochaber).
• It was founded in 1939 by four canoe clubs, the Canoe Section of the
Camping Club, Clyde Canoe Club, Forth Canoe Club (1934) and
Scottish Youth Hostels Canoe Club. The body now has approximately
3,000 individual members, including 1,750 qualified coaches, plus 90
affiliated clubs and associate organisations.
In March 2019, SCA announced[1][2] double Olympic medallist[3][4]
Jon Schofield as their Head of Performance & Pathways.[5]
SCA Performance runs programmes in 2 Olympic disciplines, Sprint and
Slalom canoeing. Rio 2016 saw the introduction of Paracanoe in the
Paralympic programme and SCA aim to support the identification of
Scottish athletes to join the British Canoeing Programme centrally
delivered in Nottingham High Performance Centre.
• With only a cheap compass and the lights of ferries to guide them, they had
paddled across the world's busiest shipping lane one night two weeks ago.
• Their voyage makes a mockery of the Government's promise to halt the flow of
migrants crossing the Channel to Britain.
• News that two had reached Kent from Calais by kayak broke on national news
earlier this month to disbelief. How could anyone survive such a crossing?
• But despite their extraordinarily dangerous sea journey to the UK, the Mail has
found the two men alive and well at a Home Office hostel in South London.
