Back to Marathon Canoe
I am going to be paddling solo and tandem canoes on Tuesday and Thursdays evenings (5:00 to 7:00 pm) for the remainder of June and all of July.
The tides are flooding under the Tillicum bridge so am taking advantage of the varying current speeds to practice in moving water.
Great practice for eddy turns, attaining, bracing and rescues.
I'd like to extend the offer to other club members, who have the Moving Water Course, to come out and join me.
Love to have a mix of novice and experienced paddlers. BYO PFD and paddle if you have them as Tuesdays are also a busy night for dragon boaters.
No need to register, just show up!
Thanks,
