This is a great thread - thank you 'pcmc' for raiksing this question, and thanks to everyone who contributed useful answers, especially the video by VitaBene.

I spent many years in the summer camp business, and teaching young boys and men about water safety was central to our waterfront programming. It is quite easy to teach safety if the participants are enjoying the learning session - and what's not to enjoy about canoes and water on a hot summer day.

The video is right on, brings back a lot of youthful memories.

Thanks for this thread.
