Kayaking in Venice with a disability - from Karen Darke
from Karen Darke
Karen accepted the invitation to be the first paddler sponsored by "POINT 65" with surprise and enthusiasm.
She asked: “But can I be a sponsored paddler, even if I cannot turn a kayak?”
Read on to see what happened next. “Of course! Would you like to go kayaking in Venice next weekend” Would I like to?! Although I have 12 years of experience in kayaking, I could not believe that anyone would want to sponsor a disabled kayaker, as a paraplegic: my biggest challenge is balance.
My kayaking adventure began with a flight to the Kayak Centre in Bibione, in northern Italy, east of Venice: turquoise water, golden beaches, gentle rowing, ice cream and sunshine.

I could not wait. To balance myself in a kayak, I used a backrest to give me more support. It is difficult to adapt to a boat without adding an extra layer of foam and glue. Therefore, I used a kayak with good overall stability to avoid tipping over and losing it. My kayak was adapted to me, so I was not worried about not finding a suitable one among those offered in Bibione. The sight of all those colourful kayaks on the beach enticed me to get into the water. My eyes went to the kayaks at Point 65, looking for one with a relatively stable hull shape (with a flatter bottom) and a larger cockpit/seat, just to make sure I could get out of it if I fell. Fortunately, the design of the seat adapted easily to my backrest, and after a few minutes, I was ready to join the group in the water.
