Return to DiscussionsWhile all you say is true, it remains a matter of personal preference and common sense. If I am in open water and its rough, I put it on. If I am in calm, shallow water with a group, I am less likely to put the PFD on, knowing, I have plenty of assistance nearby. However, most of the time, I am paddling in water that is only a few feet deep. Is the risk, zero, no. But the odds of an incident occurring that I would be saved by wearing my PFD are about the same as winning the Powerball. Just saying. Of course, if someone is uncomfortable in the water, I suppose they could drown in 3 feet. So, good advice, tempered with knowing your own limits, knowing your craft, knowing your surroundings, and knowing and accepting the applicable risk.
Just joined after getting my first kayak about a month ago - a short sit on.
I live by a 7 kilometre (not quite 5 mile) beach on a very shallow tidal bay. Quite often high tide isnt deep enough to make freestyle swimming possible, so I got the sit-on to give me an alternative activity for those tides. The beach is often empty, backed with a green belt beyond which are mainly acreage residential properties. These have their own tracks to the beach, meaning someone can pop out anywhere along the beach with no warning. So far Ive only managed to kayak nude once, but have yet to work out how to easily get the speedos back on - I had to dismount well out from the beach so I could get the speedos back on in the water when a couple appeared not far from where I was about to land.
Any suggestions for quick cover options, or how you can easily get speedos back on :) ?
