Theme: What is a Kayak?
Author: KayakingFunJuly 16, 2008

A kayak is a small human-powered boat. It typically has a covered deck, and a cockpit covered by a spraydeck. It is propelled by a double-bladed paddle in the hands of a sitting paddler.
The kayak was used by the native Ainu, Aleut and Eskimo hunters in sub-Arctic regions of northeastern Asia, North America and Greenland. Modern kayaks come in a wide variety of designs and materials for specialized purposes, such as portable kayaks. Kayaks are in some parts of the world referred to as canoes.
