I checked with a BCU Coach and Assessor regarding the issue of using or not using a paddle as an assist to entering or exiting a kayak. And the answer is: you can enter and exit the kayak using the paddle as an assist OR you can enter or exit without the paddle. Bottom line is the BCU assessors do not care!!! It was not clear why the statements are made in the web posting PDF's. happy paddling sid *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Sun Apr 23 2000 - 06:04:24 PDT
