Another word for a light vehicle rowed by a paddle is "kayak." Kayaks are typically narrow and designed for one or two people, allowing for maneuverability and speed on water. They are commonly used for recreation, sport, and exploration.
To get water out of a kayak paddle, hold the paddle vertically with the blade pointing down and shake it gently to encourage any trapped water to flow out. You can also tap the paddle against the side of the kayak or the ground to dislodge water. Additionally, using a sponge or towel to wipe down the paddle can help absorb any remaining moisture.
A kayak paddle will have two blades, and you paddle by pulling each through the water in turn. A canoe paddle just has the one blade, and you paddle by pulling it through the water on alternate sides of your craft.
