Your Thoughts?

Although this all started as a joke it became a eye opener the second that I was unable to swim faster than the kayak was drifting.

• Do I drop the paddle?
• should I take off my PFD so that I can swim faster?
• Should I hail the USCG(I'm not sure how many of you noticed but my VHF was clipped to my PFD)?
• should I strip the layers of clothing that are weighing me down?

I can't imagine what the end result could have been if I was alone. Fortunately, this all ended well but it was only because Matt was near me and rest assured I would have never tried this if I was alone in open water.
