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
