Innovative Method for Recovering a Swamped Canoe

#Recovering (the process of uprighting the #vessel and extracting the #water ), and then re-entering a #canoe after #capsize , can be tricky, frustrating, and sometimes impossible! C.W. Goetz, has devised an innovative method for re-entering a #canoe , that's quick, safe and efficient. What's more, this method works for both, tandem and solo canoes. The maneuver is accomplished using a small loop of rope, sometimes sold as "Prusik Cord," creating a type of #stirrup , enabling paddlers to hoist themselves into the canoe, like climbing onto a saddled horse. C.W. and Jasmine demonstrate this maneuver with a tandem canoe, however his process can also be accomplished with a solo canoe.
