Using your new cedar canoe is a breeze. First, find a calm and safe area to launch it into the water. Place your canoe gently in the water and then get in carefully, making sure to distribute your weight evenly. Grab the included wooden paddles and start paddling by dipping the paddle blade into the water and pulling it back smoothly. For fishing, you can anchor your canoe in a good spot and enjoy your time on the water. When it comes to maintenance, after each use, rinse the canoe with fresh water to remove any salt, dirt, or debris. Store it in a dry and shaded area to prevent the wood from warping or the fiberglass from deteriorating. If you notice any minor scratches on the hull, you can use a wood - friendly sealant to touch them up. Always check the canoe before each use to ensure its safety and integrity. Also, be aware of your canoe's weight capacity and don't overload it. With proper care, your canoe will serve you well for many adventures to come.
