Lane Cove had 15 boats in the various divisions.

The inclement weather and a harbour series race scheduled for the following day no doubt contributed to this. Toby Hogbin was our star performer on the day, clearing out in division 2 and winning by a country kilometre, as they say in this metric age. His time of 1.37.43 was outstanding in the conditions and nearly 3 minutes ahead of the nearest competitor. There were no portages due to the race starting at high tide and covering the beach, but Toby joked with others that if they could find a portage close to a suitable coffee shop he was prepared to pull in.

  • The Hoosier Paddler
    The Hoosier Paddler Volume 46, Issue 2 http://www.hoosiercanoeclub.org/ March 2008 Learn to Paddle in 2008 If you or someone you know has been waiting for “the right time” to learn how to paddle a kayak, that time has ar- rived. This spring the HCC will offer an introductory training progression suitable for all paddling styles. It’s de- signed to take beginners from clueless to comfortable in just a few steps. Part I - Introduction to Paddling Location: Thatcher Recreational Center, 4649 W. Vermont St., Indianapolis Dates: March 19 or April 9 Time: 6:30 to 9:00 PM Entails one evening session at Thatcher Pool. This session is aimed at absolute beginners and is intended to give them the foundation they need to get the most of the more detailed moving water clinic later in the Spring. The class will start with a “chalk talk” introducing basic paddling concepts, types of boats and paddles, necessary equipment and its function, and key safety concepts. Students will then move to the pool to learn and practice some foundation skills for paddling. They will learn how to adjust outfitting; how to hold the paddle, entering and exiting the boat; ba- sic strokes (forward, reverse, sweep, draw) and the beginning of body mechanics for boat control (using torso rota- tion, paddling “in the box,” leaning and edging.) Students will learn how to cope with a tip-over and be introduced to concepts of proper self-rescue and safe swimming. Equipment needed: Swim suit and towel is all you need. Students are welcome to bring their own boats and other gear to this first session but need not.

  • Paddling Greenland Style
    Paddling Greenland style The early history The origin of kayaks is relatively unknown. We know from identified archeological finds that they 2000 years ago looked much like modern Greenland kayaks. But some years ago fragments of what may have been a 5000-year-old rib was dug up on a site in Western Greenland, together with tools reminding of a modern harpoon and fragments of a paddle. The excavation showed that the people lived on sea mammals that could not have been caught without boats. But kayaks may be even older – archeological finds from the coast of Bering Sound indicate that some kind of skin boat may have been in use 8000 years ago. The problem is that these crafts were built in natural material and decomposed quickly even in the cold arctic areas. The clues are mostly pieces of bone or stone that may have been used with the kayaks or umiaks – not the very crafts and paddles. The people The arctic north was colonized from Siberia in a number of waves. First were the fishing/hunting tribes of the Paleoarctic Tradition that around 11000 BC wandered across the Bering Sound that in those days were dry land. They may have used boats but we do not know for certain. After them came the Arctic Small Tool Tradition, 4500 BC, leaving behind them the aforementioned harpoon and paddle. Next in line was the Norton Tradition, 3000 BC, also with some evidence of marine activities. The Dorset Culture was of Indian/Eskimo heritage and settled on the west coast of Greenland 500 BC, leaving no traces of kayaks or related tools.

    SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM BULLETIN 2 30 WASHINGTON, D.C. 1964 MUSEUM OF HISTORY AND TECHNOLOGY The Bark Canoes and Skin Boats of North America Edwin Tappan Adney and Howard I. Chapelle Curator of Transportation SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION, WASHINGTON, D.C. 1964 — Publications of the United States National Aiuseum The scholarly and scientific publications of the United States National Museum include two series, Proceedings of the United States National Museum and United States National Museum Bulletin. In these series the Museum publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the collections and work of its constituent museums—The Museum of Natural History and the Museum of History and Technology setting forth newly acquired facts in the fields of Anthropology, Biology, History, Geology, and Technology. Copies of each publication are distributed to libraries, to cultural and scientific organizations, and to specialists and others interested in the different subjects. The Proceedings, begun in 1878, are intended for the publication, in separate form, of shorter papers from the Museum of Natural History. These are gathered in volumes, octavo in size, with the publication date of each paper recorded in the table of contents of the volume. In the Bulletin series, the first of which was issued in 1875, appear longer, separate publications consisting of monographs (occasionally in several parts) and volumes in which are collected works on related subjects. Bulletins are either octavo or quarto in size, depending on the needs of the presentation. Since 1902 papers relating to the botanical collections of the Museum of Natural History have been published in the Bulletin series under the heading Contributions Jrom the United States National Herbarium, and since 1959, in Bulletins titled "Contributions from the Museum of History and Technology," have been gathered shorter papers relating to the collections and research of that Museum.
