Hey kayakers, Do folks prefer _short, concise_ safety articles outlining an incident (either first or second hand) followed by a writer's economy of commentary, or more in-depth, "turn over every stone" analysis (provided it is strictly content related, of course)? Do kayakers generally like to read permutations of multiple safety equipment/hard skill recommendations, or an emphasis on seamanship and navigational imperatives? Not that I've done much writing lately, but with so much information out there these days and a multiplicity of instructional kayak books/manuals, and a differentiation along the lines of those who view paddling incidents as a series of objectifiable rescue skill illustrators versus those who don't roll/don't do boat-over-boat drills much, I was wondering what direction to emphasize,at the very least, some of the subjective comment in future. Thanks.
