Hi folks,
I've just finished putting together a database site where paddlers (particularly in Canada - for now) can post and share launch locations. There's also a forum (for those poor souls who don't understand the usenet). Anyway, as I'm just getting started, I'd really appreciate it if you would take a look and add a paddling spot or two to the database so this site can actually become useful. Thanks for reading. Scott - http://www.paddlespot.ca |

Scott -http://www.paddlespot.ca Cool site Scott! One question, does CA require lights such a headlamps while paddling at night? If so I'd be breaking Canadian law when I paddle whitewater by full moonlight! Headlamps completely ruin my moonlight WW paddling experience! I mean, they're a good idea in an emergency, but the full moon sheds all the light I *need*, yano? John Kuthe... |

Hey John,
Thanks for checking out the site! Unfortunately, yes, lights are required by Transport Canada. I guess the government folk don't do much moonlight paddling or they'd understand our need to NOT have lights ruining the experience for us... Ah well... you're only guilty if you get caught, and how can they catch you if you don't have lights! ![]() Cheers, Scott - Paddlespot.ca JohnKuthe wrote: On Feb 23, 7:13 pm, Scott wrote: Hi folks, I've just finished putting together a database site where paddlers (particularly in Canada - for now) can post and share launch locations.

Unfortunately, yes, lights are required by Transport Canada. In a paddle craft, you are required to have a light, but it does not have to be on all the time. You have to show the light if there is another vessel in the area. Whitewater rivers may not fit the description of a navigable waterway, so the rules may be different there as well. Mike |
