NAVIGATION for the "ON-THE-GO" Kayaker WORKSHOP

NAVIGATION for the "ON-THE-GO" Kayaker WORKSHOP

by John Huth

March 20th from 10:00 am-2:00 pm

Location: Parker River National Wildlife Refuge

VISITOR CENTER

6 Plum Island Turnpike, Newburyport, MA

Workshop format:

"Descriptions of navigation technique are often written in the comfort of a home, where the authors forget or lose sight of the practicalities of navigation on the water. Let’s face it, navigation is the most important when you’re in the fog, or in conditions and have to make sensible decisions without resorting to complicated procedures. I describe the basics of preparation for a trip, chart reading, compass work, and a number of on-the-go navigational strategies that make it easier to navigate in conditions.

As an added bonus, I will describe some of the aspects of paddle-hull interactions, as in the stern pry and draw."
