  • PBC safety rules dictate that for club singles to be used, the water temperature must be at least 50 degrees (F). This is to protect club members from potential harm such as risk of hypothermia and cold shock. More information on hypothermia appears at an Ohio Department of Natural Resources site. You can find more information on cold shock at Atlantic Kayak Tours. Also, the American Canoe Association has information on both topics on their off-season boating safety page.
