Human-powered watercraft

Human-powered watercraft are boats or vessels that rely solely on the power of a person to move forward in the water. This means that instead of using an engine or motor, the person inside the boat is the one doing all the work to make it move.

Imagine you're sitting in a little boat with oars. You row the oars back and forth through the water, and this motion pushes the boat forward. This is an example of a human-powered watercraft!

Other examples of human-powered watercraft include kayaks, canoes, rowboats, and pedal-powered boats.

Using a human-powered watercraft is a fun way to explore different bodies of water, like lakes, rivers, and even the ocean. It's also a great form of exercise since your muscles are doing all the work.

It's important to remember to always wear a lifejacket when using a human-powered watercraft and to only go out on the water with adult supervision or being able to swim properly.
