Chapters also cover sling use, towing, staying out of trouble, bracing, and rough-water tips.
Fancy flips, etc. The wide array of rescue techniques that Roger and Jan present in this book are, in a sense, the 'martial arts' of sea kayaking. Through the practice of the rescues and recoveries that Roger and Jan offer here, you will learn how you and your kayak can be more at ease in the marine environment. From braces to bow rescues, Schumann and Shriner detail everything you need to know about rescuing yourself when things go awry on the water. This book belongs in your rescue pack every bit as much as a PFD, first-aid kit, and paddlefloat.
