Dalla quarta di copertina:

Whitewater paddlers don't just sit inside their boat; they wear them! Well designed, correctly placed outfitting is vital for safety and performance. Outfitting Your Canoe or C-1 tells you how to do just that, from positioning saddles to installing thigh straps, from affixing foot pegs to glueing in knee cups. Some canoeists believe that outfitting must be extremely tight for good performance. This simply is not true Excessively tight outfitting can trap you in a boat during emergencies, endangering your life. This book shows you how to adjust the outfitting so that you can maximize performance without sacrificing your safety. This book also shows you how to convert plastic kayaks into C-1s, a handy bit of knowledge in a market where a large variety of plastic C-1 designs don't exist. Whitewater boat outfitting has advanced considerably from the days when crudely formed parts were held in place with scraps of fiberglass. Now you can outfit your boat with confidence.
