This summer I learned and used a "new" assisted rescue technique. With two kayaks rafted up, instead of the person being rescued/assisted climbing directly into their kayak, he/she starts by reaching over the rescuer's kayak. This may still be difficult for people without much upper body strength, but may be worth a try. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Tue Jan 26 1999 - 20:36:57 PST
