If you live on the Tideway why not join one of the local clubs who could
help you with establishing a training programme which would consist of bo=
th
land and water based training. They would also be able to help assess yo=
ur
stability and potential stability and recommend a craft suitable for that=

too. They may also be able to point you in the direction of purchasing a=

second hand one too.

I would recommend you read a copy of Brian Greenways book (available from=

Sally Peake DW Merchandise) as he explains the in and outs of training fo=
r
DW.

Richmond Canoe club is based on the tide way but there are a few others
around too.

Good luck.
