What is recreational kayaking?
2023-04-12
Leisure kayaks are also called "basic boats". As the name implies, they are the easiest and easiest boats to operate without too much professional sailing knowledge.
There are two main styles of recreational kayaking: a solo kayak (which only allows one person to paddle) or a tandem kayak (which allows two people to paddle). Kayaks also have two distinct style terms of their own: "platform boat" and "cockpit boat." These two boats combine the advantages of "hard boats" and "inflatable boats". "Hard boats" are very popular, and they can be launched directly into the water. Inflatable boats are also popular. When we are not inflating, we can fold them up, which is very convenient for transportation.
There are a few differences between a "platform boat" and a "cockpit boat," but there's still only a lot in common between them. The top of the ship is called "cabin", the bottom of the ship is called "hull", the bow is called "bow", and the stern is called "end". On the "cabin" you'll find a "cabin line" that's an extra piece of equipment to hold things like water bottles or sunshades. For convenience, there are fixed carrying handles at the bow and stern, and some kayaks have ropes around the sides for grabbing so that the boat can be stabilized quickly. What's more, some kayaks have rudders and skegs, although these are not very sophisticated equipment, they can better help the boat to travel in a straight line. We can steer the rudder with our feet and make it turn in all directions. The tail fin is mounted along the centerline of the kayak, which keeps the kayak straight as it glides through the water. Both "platform boats" and "cockpit boats" have special seats, some of which also solve the problem of our feet being difficult to put on, and more delicately, some boat seats also provide backrests.

No matter which one you buy, you'll feel like you made the right decision, because every recreational kayak is suitable for wading, and is very comfortable and fun.
