Colin, Thanks for reposting your description. Sounds like a nifty piece of work, though I believe I can probably do my version as fast *without* the bump and grind of boat-to-boat contact. As wanewman_at_uswest (sorry I don't know your name) points out, the "official" plan of dragging the righted boat across your boat and then re-capsizing it on your lap is hard on gear. I do think your version has merit and I will give it a try -- in one of the company boats. I don't like to use methods that might damage skirts, paddles and/or boats in the process, but having lots of possibilities increases the chances that you have at least one method in your bag-O-tricks that will work for each paddler. Good input everyone, Harold *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Fri Jun 25 1999 - 09:33:21 PDT
