Default Comments wanted on Oldtown Pack canoe

the seat another inch or so).


Or simply kneel. Many a canoe accident started from the position of the
seat.Nearly all of them are too high; lowering an inch or two is indeed
a good first step. Get a foam pad or carpet layer's kneepads. Not only
is the center of gravity lower when kneeling, but your ability to shift
weight/position quickly in response to conditions is greatly improved.
This will more than likely aid the canoe's tracking as well.
