Just looked at the news clip. Awesome that they could help those people. The PP Canal is a REALLY dangerous place when the tide is running. If you don't know what you're doing it's easy to get in trouble quickly.

There's one section of that canal that when the outgoing tide is really flowing there's a 3-4 foot drop .. it's like going over a waterfall. Like running rapids.

Reminder to think safety........with a plan and equipment that's within reach to be grabbed.
Could happen to anyone, any time. I recently improved on my readiness.......anyone else please post how you do it: Life jackets....I now keep on deck, not stored - 1 for each person. PLB..............Clipped onto my belt, with line so I can hold it up without losing. Whistle.........around my neck when fishing alone. Sports type, very loud. If gets rough, life jackets on....if storm approaching, life jackets on before the storm. Fishing alone cold conditions.....life jacket on. Plan to upgrade to inflatable jacket, so I can wear it most all the time when fishing alone. |

How and where can you store the life vest on the deck? Do you have a cuddy cabin or c.c. I keep mine in a bag in the cabin but that's going to change reel quick Lol
