This is a thoroughly modern book on the traditional open canoe. It
covers all aspects of the open canoe, from design to wilderness
travel. What really sets it apart is its focus on canoeing
techniques. Ray Goodwin is the UK's best known and (many would go
so far as to say) foremost canoe coach. By introducing some of the
latest canoeing performance skills, based on what he has discovered
through decades of coaching and guiding, he sets out to inspire a
new generation of paddlers. Through clear language and the use of
photographs acquired over many years of paddling around the world,
he shares some real insights of the reality of canoeing; sometimes
gritty, but always enthralling. New in the 2nd edition is a section
on 'vision pattern', a method for creating a mental map of a rapid.
There is an expanded and re-written chapter on canoeing with
children. There are more techniques for improvised sailing and more
on advanced lining and tracking. It describes new solo rescue
techniques and has many new inspirational canoe expedition
examples.
