Kayakers who are doing safety escort work for swimmersare are instructed to use straightforward everyday terms rather than bow, stern, deck, etc. A kayaker assisting a swimmer tells the person in the water to grab on to "front end" and does not say "bow" . . . not everyone knows nautical terms or may get confused in an emergency. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gabriel L Romeu" <romeug_at_erols.com> To: "Jim" <jfarrelly5_at_home.com> Cc: <PaddleWise_at_paddlewise.net> Sent: Tuesday, December 25, 2001 6:29 PM Subject: Re: [Paddlewise] Language of Naval Architecture > cool, and I like to call mine the snout, tail and haunches. > > Jim wrote: > > > > I like to call the front of kayak the front and the back of the Kayak the back > > and the side of the kayak the side.
