Re: [Paddlewise] So Calif Whale Watch Paddle & Lessons Learned

Doug,

Great looking item, I sent them an email to get prices since they don't have
them listed. My grey pump with a small red floatation color was not easy to
see in the swells and whitecaps. And although my pump was kept wedged
between my seat and hull, the reason I had not teathered it was because I
hadn't yet found color coordinated bungee cord.

.........Securing one's hand held pump isn't that difficult
to do but, if you want to spend money and be a true techno-weenie,
Natural West Coat Adventure Gear had a great Cordura sleeve that
velcroes the length of the pump. It has a clip for a tether line, and
built in flotation so the pump cant sink either. Mine's bright red to
match my PFD - stylin' bro! Color coordination and lots of gear makes
for a safer paddler, right? ..........
You can check out the Company at:

No picture on the site yet, but contact info there.  It was about $10.00
Canadian. A neat little product from Canada, worth its price in gold (or
silver in the USA!). I have no financial intrest in this company.
