Can I go Canoing while pregnant?

If a woman (not you) is normally healthy and has no complications and wears a life jacket and confines her trips to calm waters, YES; she can go canoeing;

BUT why have YOU not asked your DOCTOR this question? That would be the more sensible approach. I suggest that you obtain your doctor's opinion before thinking about it 1 more minute.

Some women are fit enough to ski, swim, kayak, canoe, fly, dive and waterski while pregnant. Only YOU and your DOCTOR can intelligently answer that question.

Did native Americans use fire to make dugout canoes?

Fire has always been used to help carve out the wood from a log to create canoes around the world. We are fortunate that we have first-hand accounts and pictures of the Powhatan people using fire to help with this process. The fire must be controlled in some way, but essentially the interior area of wood was burned and then cut away with stone tools or even sea shells - burning makes this process much easier.

Can Aegis radar detect a canoe 300 yards away?

We found one source on the www that says the effective range of the Aegis radar is more than

300 Km, which is about 328,000 yards.

So we're thinking it wouldn't have too much trouble picking out a canoe at 0.09% of that range.

In fact, maybe you wouldn't want to be bathed in the direct glow of an Aegis only 300 yards

away from you as you went paddling by.
