International Canoe

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The International Canoe, or more properly the International Ten Square Metre Sailing Canoe, often abbreviated to IC is a powerful and extremely fast single handed sailing canoe whose rules are governed by the International Canoe Federation.

It is a boat with a narrow bow entry and a planing hull, carrying a mainsail, and a jib (nowadays often self tacking). One variety of IC also carries an asymmetric spinnaker. Stability is achieved with a sliding seat on which the single crew member sits, effectively controlling the boat from 'outside'.
