From Waterlines, our paddling blog:

" License to Paddle?
" . . . A lengthy recent discussion at Paddling.net focused on whether the idea of requiring training and licensing of paddlers is a good idea. The argument in favor of licensing holds that the number of costly rescue operations is increasing -- and that requiring paddlers to be trained and licensed would reduce the number of required rescues as well as providing a source of funds to pay for the rescues that do take place.

Those who operate powerboats over a certain length are required to have licenses, so requiring paddlers to be licensed could be seen as an expansion / extension of that law. While I encourage kayakers to get training commensurate to the kind of paddling they will be doing, I believe that this kind of increased regulation of kayaking would would be wrongheaded, ineffective, and unenforceable . . . ."Read more plus kayaking news.

Water Walker Sea Kayak

We offer kayak tours, instruction, rentals (and ample amounts of free advice). Our kayak tours are family and user friendly -- you don't have to have a high-powered budget or be a high powered athlete. Yet our tours regularly go to some of the most spectacular and ambitious coastal locations offered by outfitters in Maine.

Our retail shop specializes in performance designs by quality manufacturers who keep costs low by limiting advertising and distribution costs. Because of this and low markup, we can offer you more boat for less money -- our fiberglass single sea kayaks start at $1795, and we can ship anywhere in the continental U.S.

As a "homemade" business in Belfast, Maine, our goal is to provide first class kayaks at prices everyone can afford. We offer neighborly service -- and can ship nationwide. Please contact us for more information.
