On our first canoe training canoe day we learned a lot. We learned how to unload canoe off a trailer, how to properly j-stroke and many more. When I was carrying a canoe I found it lighter then I expected, which made it easier to move around. While we got into the water I tryout all the ways to padded. I found out that doing the j-stoke was more difficult then I intended it would be, but after a couple trys I figured it out. When me and my partner went around the island we found out that not going straight made it tiering, so we found a nice steady paced and sticked to it. Through the trip we had a lot of fun travelling around our lake. When we were finished on the lake we had to carry out canoes to the trailer and tie it down. The things we need to have for our next canoe trip is extra pair of clothe, garbage bag to put clothe in, rope to tie it in the canoe, string for glasses, windbreaker, and a bailer.

1 minute of hyperventilating
10 minutes to move around in the water
1 hour of staying conscious
Strainer is a broken tree that has fallen into the water, the problem with a strainer is that water goes under and above the strainer, so it can trap you under a strainer. If you get stuck under a strainer you have to climb up on top.
Sweeper is are trees that hang out over and above a river that can flip canoes.
