This time lapse video shows the 6-day class with one picture taken every 60 seconds to reduce a day down to one minute. As you can see, while a lot needs to get done in this class, it runs at a comfortable pace. Because there are several people working on the boat you can take time to step-back and look at what you are accomplishing. There is plenty of opportunity to ask the instructor how to do something or how to do it better.
Every year, kayak enthusiasts from all over come together at Bluff Point State Park in Groton, Connecticut, for a free and open event. It’s a great place to learn about different kayak designs and techniques, and it’s perfect for beginners and even those who are just starting to paddle.
