  A little bit off the original subject, but still related.....
  I was talking earlier this morning to a dog musher who has run the
Iditarod (Anchorage to Nome) and the subject turned to emergencies - his
comment was that you're always allowed one mistake but the consequences
of making a second mistake, while trying to deal with the effects of the
original mistake, can kill you.
  An interesting point of view from an unrelated sport, but quite
applicable to sea-kayaking and all this talk about rescues.  Whatever
method you choose, make sure that it works well for you.
