let him splash and even tip it over, so he can
learn that even if flipped it will not sink.

Dont know what Canoe's you have been in, but I have been in TWO seperate
canoes that have gone straight to the bottom, half tipped over, took on
water and went straight down. They WILL sink.


What material were they made from / of? I've seen some very messy
canoe flips and even one holed (big hole in an aluminum) that never
went down beneath the gunwales. My one flip in an Old Town went right
over and floated top side down while I dragged it to shore.
