'Morning Peter and Paddlwise.
My rope throwing experience tells me that neither under nor over arm
throwing work in kayak situations. The throw being a flat trajectory, the
best distance/accuracy method is a back-handed skim, something like throwing
a Frisbee. With a little practice, this can be done ambidextrously.
Cheers,
Kevin.
