RE: David Burch's excellent "Fundamentals of Kayak Navigation" - my 
experience has been the same as Steve Cramer's. It's an excellent book jammed 
with information on just about every aspect of navigation, specifically as 
those aspects apply to paddling a kayak. I've read it three times. I keep a 
copy open and dip into it occasionally for an informal fourth read. At this 
point I probably know about 15% of what's in there, and not much more will 
pack into this aging brain. That 15% has been enough to let me get from here 
to there many times, safely.

I think this book is just about as essential as a paddle or a PFD for those 
of us who are in the learning stages of kayak tripping.
