This canoe is mounted with a mechanism for transferring forces from leg muscles to two paddles moving in and out of the water in quite accurate coordination with the speed of the passing water to avoid splash and optimise force transference. The canoe is paddled very effortlessly by one person with two persons onboard. The stearing problem in the video is due to strong gusts of wind on the test day. The mechanism is designed and built by Ole, the operator seen in the video.
