Sea Kayaking Safety

If you've been reading my blog for any length of time, you know that safety while kayaking is one of my top concerns. I am always on the hunt for anything that can help further the cause of safety, from articles to checklists, and I just found a pretty good article from an interesting source. Some of you may remember a company called Mariner Kayaks. Mariner Kayaks used to build and sell sea kayaks, from 1980 until 2008. Even though the business has closed, the former owners have left the website up as a reference. As long as they decide to keep them available, there are several excellent articles on the site that are worth reading.

The article that caught my eye is obviously the one about safety, but if you go to the home page and open the drop down menu on the left called manuals, you will see the list of articles available. The article is targeted at sea kayaking, but there is information there good for all kayakers.

Good Paddling!
