I was wearing a Lotus tow system... which hooked to my vest with a
caribiner... in the surf.  I got capsized... when I tried to come up, I
found the caribiner on my jacket had clipped to the deck line.  ... and I
was underneath the kayak with the surf pounding away.

The trick is... how long can you hold your breath?
