I used my vest as a pillow, I was able to lay down in the K1C with my legs and feet out of the cockpit and just drift along. When I woke up I couldn't believe that I crashed out. I thought about what I did and saw the bag in my cockpit and then I figured I'd try it out. In boot camp they told us to make sure to keep your pants and ball cap wet when you use them as floats, it seals the air inside. It was part of the abandon ship training. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Wed Aug 25 1999 - 16:14:13 PDT
