I suspect they are legally not 'vessels' in Uk waters, as has been decreed for jetskis?

Canoes are generally not cut out to be stand on vessel, as they don't seem to ever be able to maintain a course or speed.









Particularly when I'm driving !

It's a while since that court case and I've forgotten the details. But wasn't the point that the MCA tried to claim (in order to bring a particular piece of law to bear) that they were more than just "vessels", they were ships? The judge threw that out because a jetski is plainly not a ship.
