Fully Laden Open Canoe Self Empty and Self Rescue

This is one of many techniques on how to self rescue and self empty an open canoe in an open water environment.
Most techniques on KZbin seem to be showing lightweight empty boats, that are easy to pick up and flip, we thought it was about time to demonstrate a more realistic scenario of an open canoe fully laden with equipment being skilfully and calmly emptied and re-entered.
I do hope you find this useful and I encourage you to go out and learn these skills and practice these skills, because at some point you will need them. Please look after yourselves.

Excellent. There seem to be very few convincing videos of how to get back in after a spill.

I agree.

Great Video.... Thanks. When you are pulling the canoe up onto the floats did you have your feet extended and pushing on the canoe?

[@outdoorinstruction]

Yes my feet are braced and the canoe is pulled up via the painter from the yoke

Хватит ли времени, чтобы накачать эти два больших мешка, находясь в холодной воде?🤔
