I don't know how those two flipped??? One moment they were under power and pushing through, the next they were sideways getting tumbled. They were very lucky neither of them didn't get injured by the outboard, gas tank, or worse, the prop. Glad they survived w/out injury.

I was helping recover their gear and took off before they did....Did they ever make it out?

glad to hear you made it back safe.

Kayak or a boat, dingy or whatever else you're floating on to get to them, make sure you keep safety first. Always try to plan for "what if" situations, and have gear on hand to deploy to help deal with it.

Must read for the new blood:

I think they made it out, I didn't see anyone loading one up when I was launching.
