Customer Reviews

A must for novices.
An excellent book covering all the safey aspects of Sit on Top kayaks. Very sound advice for anyone using one of these craft for the first time, and also an interesting read for the more experienced.
Full of high quality pictures and diagrams

Should come free with your first kayak.
As someone new to kayaking last year (and what fantastic fun it's been!) I found this readable little book a very useful introduction. It covers the basics sensibly and comprehensively with sections on paddling technique, clothing and equipment, safety tips, and some useful stuff about reading and managing currents and tides. An excellent introduction which is difficult to fault.
