Guidance for Rowers and Canoeists on Shared Waters
Guidance for Rowers and Canoeists on shared water INTRODUCTION The growth in participation in water sports means that many rowing and canoe clubs and centres have to share the water where they row or canoe and it is important to build good relationships. This advice is published jointly by British Canoeing and British Rowing. Rowing boats and canoes behave very differently. By understanding these differences, and agreeing and following some basic guidelines, rowers and canoeists can happily share the same piece of water. The following table highlights the major differences: Rowing and sculling boats Canoes and Kayaks Relatively fast Relatively slow Good view astern, poor view ahead Good view ahead, poor view astern Not very manoeuvrable Manoeuvrability varies according to design Wide (up to 7 m blade tip to blade tip) Narrow Difficult to stop quickly Easier to stop quickly What canoeists need to know about rowing boats • There are many different types and sizes of rowing and sculling boats, for 1, 2, 4 or 8 people. • Rowing boats (especially 4s and 8s) are fast and go well in straight lines. • Rowing boats do not naturally stop quickly but rowers can do an emergency stop. • Rowers do not face the direction of travel. • Some rowing boats have coxes – some are in the front of the boat, some are at the back. • Coxes have restricted vision – the ones in the front cannot see behind at all or to the side very easily, coxes at the back have difficulty seeing directly ahead, can see to the side and have limited vision behind. -

Each vessel may have, for each person on board or in guided boats, one PFD, which is approved for the type of use by the commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard. All personal Flotation Devices (PFDs) must be used according to the conditions or restrictions listed on the U.S. Coast Guard Approval Label. Each Personal Flotation Device (PFD) shall be: . In serviceable condition; . Legally marked with the U.S. Coast Guard approval number; and . Of an appropriate size for the person for whom it is intended. 2.

Balance of Racing Rowing Boats
BALANCE OF RACING ROWING BOATS This article was prepared by Steve Kerr of Furnivall Sculling Club. It is part of the Furnivall Sculling Club Home Page. Furnivall is a rowing and sculling club based on the Tideway in London. Furnivall celebrated its centenary in 1996. "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler." - Albert Einstein Introduction In this article the classic analysis of the static stability of ships is extended in a way that seems to offer some useful insights to rowers in racing boats. The investigation started out as simple curiosity to see what happened when I plugged some numbers for racing boats into standard fluid mechanics theory. The results were unexpected, hence this article. Balance does not get much of a mention in rowing literature. Generally textbooks seem to assume that if everything is kept symmetrical then balance will emerge naturally. The older texts contain the unemphasised assumption that beginners will always start out in wide stable boats and graduate through a progression of finer craft. I suppose coaches did not need to worry about it much in those days as the boatman would normally issue the appropriate kit. This approach has continued, some modern texts, such as the ARA Instructors Handbook, suggest starting off beginner scullers paddling square blades without really discussing what sort of boat is required to do it. I suspect that it is relatively common in clubs today for beginners to be put into fine hand-me-down boats at a relatively early stage, which perhaps makes balance more of an issue than it used to be. -
