An
outrigger canoe is the most stable boat that you could paddle!You can step into this canoe with confidence, knowing that you will
stay dry and steady!The canoe here at the Genesee
Waterways Center has two hulls that are connected together and looks similar
to a
catamaran, which is what makes the boat so stable.
A trained steersperson is always in
the boat and is responsible for helping you into the boat, steering and
directing the canoe, and docking safely.You get to
paddle and enjoy the scenery of our beautiful waterways!
The GWC, in collaboration with
SportsNet, a program of the Rochester Rehabilitation Center, also offers
recreational, fitness, and competitive outrigger canoe programs for
individuals of all abilities. Adapted equipment is available,
including modified paddles and seats; we adjust to meet the needs of the
individual. We also have a mechanical Hoyer lift on the dock to assist
with getting in and out of the boat.
