A canoeist is a person who travels by canoe, or who does as a sport. The ending -ist means someone who does this, so the word names the person, not the action. Travelling by canoe is what they do; is the activity-word; canoeist is the person in the boat. You will hear it in race reports and club news. In easy daily English, people often just say she canoes or he goes .
