G'day -

Does anyone have any advice on using sea chutes with kayaks on long open
water crossings??

I am specifically looking for information on deployment and recovery;
stowage suggestions; length of attachment line; suggested size of the
chute for a single kayak loaded with expedition gear; suggested
materials; suggested floatation size, etc.

AND  Do's and Don'ts.

Thanks in advance

Wayne Langmaid
