Take the sleek lines of a kayak and cross them with the stability of an inflatable raft. What you end up with is a duckie – the perfect way for the novice kayaker to get her feet wet, while still providing enough fun and maneuverability to keep the most dedicated river rat happy.
A duckie (inflatable kayak) is a great way for a kid to learn the basics of kayaking. The fundamental skills are the same, but because it’s inflatable, a duckie is more stable and not quite as fast as a kayak. Renaissance Adventure Guides offers duckie classes and trips. The classes cover safety and skills training, and we provide the gear.
Never been in a kayak before? No problem. After taking one of our courses or trips, you’ll be awfully fond of your duckie.
