Lifting & Carrying a Canoe

Rating: **

In this article it talks about how to properly lift and carry a canoe

This article teaches the basics of how to lift a canoe and carry it either solo or with a two people. Most of the concepts it talks about are things already covered in our class such as using your legs to flip to canoe up over your head and how to properly place it on your shoulders to reduce chance of injury.

This article was informative but due to it being basic things that we already have been taught I rated it low for the purposes of this class. If you are someone who is just learning the basics of canoeing with no previous experience it could be a very helpful article.
