Common Questions

Everything you need to know before getting on the water.

Not at all. Most of our customers are beginners. We provide a complimentary lesson covering everything you need to know before you get on the water. We will make sure you feel comfortable and confident before launch.

Yes. A complimentary beginner lesson is included with every rental if needed. We cover paddle handling, stroke technique, foot placement, and safety information before entering the water.

Text your preferred date, your group size, whether you want paddle boards or kayaks, and any beginner questions you have. That is enough for us to get you scheduled quickly.

If weather or water conditions are not safe, we will help you reschedule for another day or time that works for you.

Wear comfortable clothes you do not mind getting wet. Swimwear, athletic wear, or quick-dry clothing works great. Always plan on getting wet. Secure your glasses and leave valuables on shore or in a waterproof bag.

Our preferred launch location is the Winfield Boat Launch Area. We serve customers across Kanawha and Putnam Counties, West Virginia. When you contact us to schedule, we will confirm the exact meeting spot.

Our Early Bird Special is a day rental for $60 instead of $75 — available when all equipment is returned by 3 PM the same rental day. It is a great way to enjoy a full morning on the water and save.
