Kayaks: Get a duck's eye view of the wilderness. From gentle rivers to foaming oceans, sea and touring kayaks are an increasingly popular way to explore the outoors.

Canoes: From woodstrip beauties to bomb-proof Grumans, the classic North American style open shell design is still a good way to get to know its rivers.

Boat Building: Building your own canoe or kayak provides a beautiful boat at a reasonable cost. More importantly, camping from your hand built boat in the wilderness is an unbeatable experience.

Extended Touring: Camping from a canoe or kayak makes the journey as significant (and potentially pleasurable) as the destination. And some of the most scenic Natl Parks in the Mid-Atlantic encompass suprisingly accessible waterways.

Paddlecraft: We all believe in our hearts that we were born (or should have been born) knowing how to paddle a boat, but taking some time to learn a little technique can seriously improve the paddling experience.
