You can do the Quest in all kinds of craft, from single sea kayaks to 8-person Voyageur canoes, but my mind was made up from the minute I’d decided to have a crack at it: I was going to Canada, so I’d be doing it in a Canadian canoe. Of course they don’t call them Canadian canoes over there. Just canoes. And that got me thinking. Why the hell are these boats referred to as Canadian canoes anyway? Sure, Canadians are pretty enthusiastic about their single-ended blades, but there’s solid evidence that canoes have been in use Downunder for tens of thousands years, and I’m pretty sure that makes Indigenous Australians the original boat people. Be that as it may, I couldn’t find anyone to give me lessons in proper canoeing techniques before I left for the Yukon – at least not in Melbourne. I should have looked a bit harder. Four years later I found the very person I’d needed while preparing for the Quest – a bloke who lives and breaths open-boat paddling and who is championing a second coming of Australian canoeing.

  • Kark's Canoeing and Kayaking Guide to 309 Wisconsin Streams
    Kark's Canoeing and Kayaking Guide to 309 Wisconsin Streams By Richard Kark May 2015 Introduction A Badger Stream Love Affair My fascination with rivers started near my hometown of Osage, Iowa on the Cedar River. High school buddies and I fished the river and canoe-camped along its lovely limestone bluffs. In 1969 I graduated from St. Olaf College in Minnesota and soon paddled my first Wisconsin stream. With my college sweetheart I spent three days and two nights canoe- camping from Taylors Falls to Stillwater on the St. Croix River. “Sweet Caroline” by Neil Diamond blared from our transistor radio as we floated this lovely stream which was designated a National Wild and Scenic River in 1968. Little did I know I would eventually explore more than 300 other Wisconsin streams. In the late 1970s I was preoccupied by my medical studies in Milwaukee but did find the time to explore some rivers. I recall canoeing the Oconto, Chippewa, Kickapoo, “Illinois Fox,” and West Twin Rivers during those years. Several of us traveled to the Peshtigo River and rafted “Roaring Rapids” with a commercial company. At the time I could not imagine riding this torrent in a canoe. We also rafted Piers Gorge on the Menomonee River. Our guide failed to avoid Volkswagen Rock over Mishicot Falls. We flipped and I experienced the second worst “swim” of my life. Was I deterred from whitewater? Just the opposite, it seems. By the late 1970s I was a practicing physician, but I found time for Wisconsin rivers. In 1979 I signed up for the tandem whitewater clinic run by the River Touring Section of the Sierra Club’s John Muir Chapter.

  • 2005 Annual Banquet November 12, 2005
    125th Commemorative Presentation ACA 2005 Annual Banquet November 12, 2005 Hilton Garden Inn Fairfax, VA www.americancanoe.org American Canoe Association 125th Anniversary Commemorative Presentation [1. Kirk Havens] As you know by now, 2005 marks the American Canoe Association’s 125th Anniversary. To mark this important occasion, we have scoured the ACA archives and compiled a brief retrospective of the significant highlights in ACA history. Rather than make you listen to me talk for twenty minutes, I thought I would ask some of the legends of paddlesport to help me tell the ACA story. Most of these folks need no introduction, but just to be polite, I am going to introduce them anyway. Our first guest designed his first racing canoe – the Minuteman – in 1973. Quickly, his hobby of designing boats grew and he became the 20th century’s most prolific designer of human-powered watercraft. He has designed boats for Tubbs, Curtis, Loon Works, Perception, Swift and Bell Canoe. In all, he has designed more than 50 hulls in a variety of materials, and chances are you have paddled one of them. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome David Yost. A blacksmith who loves paddling, our next guest has manufactured re-creations of Voyageur canoes and has also designed a variety of modern tripping canoes. He is an accomplished historian with over 4,000 book titles in his collection. His collection of canoes is just as impressive. It numbers 100, and when he is done with them, he plans to donate them to the Chicago Maritime Museum. We’re pleased to have him be a part of the ACA’s history – Ralph Frese.

  • A Case Study of the Ottawa Valley Whitewater Rafting Industry
    A Case Study of the Ottawa Valley Whitewater Rafting Industry: Standards and Risk Management Ryan A. Howard, HBOR, BA Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Applied Health Sciences (Leisure Studies) Supervisor: Timothy S. O'Connell, PhD Faculty of Applied Health Sciences,, Brock University St. Catharines, Ontario _ Ryan A. Howard © June 2009 ii Abstract This qualitative case study identifies and discusses the standards and risk management practices of the Ottawa Valley whitewater rafting industry and the impacts of the government enforced Special-purpose Vessels Regulations are discussed. Data collection occurred using a single case study design, which included interviews and document analysis. This study found that internal, industry, and actual standards are influenced through a variety of sources. These standards were found to affect the risk management practices of commercial whitewater rafting providers. In general, these standards promoted a high level of risk management within the Ottawa Valley rafting industry. The Special-purpose Vessels Regulations were found to be non-influential in raising the risk management standards of the Ottawa Valley whitewater rafting industry. iii Acknowledgements Grateful acknowledgement is due to the people who have helped me in the process of researching, writing, and revising the following pages. Most importantly, I would like to thank my supervisor Dr. Tim 0' Connell for his patience and dedication throughout this process. Without his commitment to this research and my writing, the following pages would be blank. Thank you, Tim, for keeping my pen to the paper and the microbrew cold. My sincerest thanks go to my committee members Dr.
