i'm guessing that the way the water got into the hull so fast was when i flipped the kayak to get back in? I honestly have no clue but when i tried to get back in the yak, i immediately flipped and that was when i saw the kayak on its side. The only logical explanation was the front hatch not being completely secured since everything else (including the center hatch) was shut.
The battery along with my phone and everything else was completely submerged until i realized it about 1-2 minutes later. could've been longer. I honestly don't recall, everything happened in what felt like 10 seconds.
