The Unforgettable Kayak Cumberland Island Experience
by Rebecca Howard
Learning kayaking in the sea is somewhat different that in just still open water, as naturally there are additional elements, such as tides and currents as well as the waves that need to be taken into consideration. The typical sea kayak is normally a covered vessel and has storage space for camping gear, food supplies and so forth. In learning kayaking you will most likely come across many different types of these vessels, that can accommodate anywhere from one to three paddlers, obviously, the size differs quite substantially. However, if you are really interested in some serious kayaking, the <a href="http://www.ameliaislandkayak.com/cumberland-island/">kayak Cumberland Island</a> located in the Jacksonville FL is the place to be.
If you been in this sport for a while, you must know a little bit about the Frenzy. It has a "tri-hull" design. The "tri-hull" refers to the presence of a keel down the center and sponsons, shoulders, along with the sides. Imagine two outriggers brought in so close that they overlap the hull. These sponsons give the Frenzy great stability. The buoyancy of the sponsons resists any attempt to turn the kayak over.
There are wells for feet at different distances from the seat to fit most leg lengths. The Frenzy is self-bailing through four scupper holes from the seating and leg wells to the bottom of the kayak. In keeping with it being a recreational kayak, it has a molded in cup holder. A seat with a back may be attached.
Paddlers must bear in mind that while packing the distribution of items must be well balanced. Thus, heavy items like tents must be stored either in front or behind the cockpit. Even storing it just behind the seat can be a good idea. The heaviest items must be stored the lowest and at the center for perfect stability.
Once you've got the perfect kayak and a good kayak carrier to go, it's time to consider getting yourself a life vest to ensure your safety on the water. Just to be on the safe side, pick those that are certified by the United States Coast Guard because these products got the best quality to offer.
You may need to and required in most places to carry a bailing bucket to help empty your canoe of any water you may have taken on, and a throw rope for emergency rescues from shore or even other boats. Throw ropes come in a bag and are designed not to be an entanglement hazard before they are deployed.
In the event of an emergency you simply grab the free end of the rope with one hand and throw the heavier bag to shore or to you are would be rescuers. When you are forced to use one of these ropes then you will appreciate them more, especially if you get tossed into some rapids and out of your kayak.
If the rivers are not your scene then the sea or lakes will delight you. Cumberland Island kayaking is fun when covering short distance races using smaller paddles. They are great for beginners and those who just want some fun. More strength and stamina is required for longer trips involving paddling from one Caye to another. This type of kayaking is for the more experienced and not for the amateur.
