Good thinking by your friend! Glad he got back aboard ok. Did he say his he fell out? S#it happens FAST!

The very FIRST trip I took in my new Hobie Revolution kayak with pedal Mirage Drive a couple weeks ago in Long Island Sound I had to help a Mom & Son get back to shore. They were a 1/2 mile off the beach after capsizing their 2 person sit in kayak. It was completely filled and they were trying to swim it back to shore. Neither of them had a lifejacket on or even aboard! The son was not a strong swimmer, rain and lightning were approaching, tide was moving, and dusk was falling. It was not good. We all got caught in the rain and lightning as I towed them and their kayak back to shore with my Hobie pedal drive.
