Canoeing is a wet sport - expect to get wet! Whether it is from rain, capsize or sweating, moisture in your clothing draws your body heat out quickly and dangerously. Changing into dry clothing is crucial. Carry it in a waterproof bag or container. Cotton absorbs lots of water and it will keep you wet and cold, and possibly hypothermic!
