Learn more here: www.portlandpaddle.net/lessons/navigation-skills-weekend-workshop/The Sea Kayak Navigation Skills Weekend Workshop is designed to teach the essential skills for navigating coastal waters. We focus specifically on managing challenging conditions typical of Maine, including strong winds, swift currents, and fog. Students will learn various approaches to navigating with a chart and compass and gain firsthand experience using these skills while paddling on Casco Bay. There will be time for students to practice taking bearings, dead reckoning, triangulation, crossing boat channels, paddling in low visibility and using aids to navigation. After gaining familiarity with the key navigation tools, resources, and skills during the first day of the course, students will plan a trip for the second day that will give them opportunities to practice what they have learned.
