[Paddlewise] Re How would you deal with the following situation

I can't believe some of the responses to this thread. From people who train 
themselves to handle a water emergency, who roll their boats upside down 
for fun, who you would assume are at home in the water and prepared for it 
by wearing a PFD and proper clothing. I would not hesitate...I would get 
out of the boat and push it to them. Will this make me another victim? Yeah 
maybe. But that would hurt a lot less then watching a father and son out 
for an afternoon sail or a couple of 10 year old kids who stole the family 
canoe disappear while I was sitting in a floating boat, blowing up my 
paddle float and trying to talk them into being calm.
