Reseña del editor:

Joe Glickman, a two-time member of the US National Marathon Kayak Team, teaches beginners the basic techniques for all kinds of kayaking - sea, touring and recreational. For more experienced kayakers, he offers expert advice on how to navigate in all kinds of waters and weathers. Kayakers of every skill level should appreciate Glickman's assessments of the various types of boats, how to read a compass, troubleshooting in lousy weather and how to deal with lightning, big fish and marauding powerboats.
