I suppose in certain instances you could use your paddle float. Since I take aspirin to prevent blood clotting, I bleed like hell when cut so I carry extra gauze pads to apply as clean pressure points. I've been told sanitary napkins would really be great but don't have the nerve to go buy any. Besides, I'm confused enough wearing a skirt when I go paddling.
