You don't have to be super still like a canoe do you? Thanks.


If you already have a canoe, there are companies that make outrigger type

http://www.castlecraft.com/canoe_stabilizer.htm even has a picture of someone

but was famous for doing headstands in canoes while whitewater canoeing,
we don't all have her sense of balance...
