RE: [Paddlewise] Staying with the kayak

On my last trip to San O, I did just this. Holding on to my bowline with my
PFD on, backstroke seems the best way to go and having a fin really helped.
I just wish the stupid waves would take my boat in so I could just worry
about getting myself to shore. On every swim, I've got to lug a kayak full
of water. But that's my life!

I've often toyed with the idea of swim fins being carried
on my back deck, readily available. With my decreased swimming endurance as
I age, the proposition is looking better at outfitting myself thusly.
