SELF-STABILIZING KAYAK

The project involves creating a stabilized kayak for Kieran who has cerebral palsy.  The project is intended to create a safer kayak for Kieran to allow him to keep kayaking with his dad.  For this project, we used an external stabilization system consisting of external outriggers, an internal stabilization system with straps, and chair support made of UHMW plastic.
