Re: [Paddlewise] Re-entry and roll?

Bob;

I have never re-entered and rolled a boat (keep in mind I'm a big guy)
that would lay on its side.  Invariably, I can get a little ways into it
but there comes a time when I have to hold my breath, go under and
shimmy into place then roll.  That's why, as I mentioned earlier, it
helps to have all of the other partuculars worked out.
