A story from my part of the world. St Simon's Island is located just a bit North of Florida in Georgia. The kayaker apparently threw the two survivors flotation devices after they found themselves in a bad place. The inlet where the swimmer drowned is very deceiving with deep, swift water right next to ankle deep water. It seems like most summers a tourist drowns here. http://jacksonville.com/news/georgia/2013-07-16/story/body-teenage-drowning-victim-recovered-st-simons-island Jim et al *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
