- In this video I show the basic technique we use to get the water out of a skin on frame canoe and how to get back in safely.

Very interesting re rescue techniques. OUTSTANDING production values. Liz rocks!
My day has been made..."No, NO...Bad cow...!!!" Liz is priceless...Glad they didn't do more damage...Thank again Brian for a great video...
That really is a great way you've put all this together for the canoe, and an entertaining and informative way to show it. I love how the SOF rib structure gives you places to stow things. The picatinny rail of the boat world!
Another great video Brian thanks to you both for taking the time, getting wet, showing us rescue done right!
Thumbs up for Liz.
Great video. Be safe
😊when I was a kid we used a 1 gal Clorex plastic bottle with the bottom end cutoff
It was faster to scoop and throw the water
It's true that we were bailing a flat bottom rowboat
Later in my life I recovered a spruce and canvas kayak using 10 ounce canvas and at first a claimed waterproofing which when wetted wicked the water thru. So I painted the canvas
Props to you both for getting wet! It’s the problem with practicing skills like this, it’s never the ‘right’ time.
(Personal anecdotes: I would suggest anyone who wears prescription glasses on the water get a croakee for your glasses and put up with using it all the time. And make sure it works during swims. On my first ever unplanned capsize I lost my glasses and headlight to the bottom and my hat was floating. Amazingly I found the headlamp, and then glasses (after marking the headlamp spot before grabbing it) the next morning because it happened about 15 seconds into my evening paddle (water 12’ deep, 2’ weeds). I also lost a pair of prescription sunglasses doing rescues on a course after I lent my croakee to someone who didn’t have one, and had really poor vision. Of course I forgot to put my glasses ‘safe’ and only remember after I surfaced. I know fairly closely where that was but in 4 years of searching they never showed up :( . )
Thanks for sharing Andrew!
Any plans for a double outrigger?
Bomber setup. did you make the folding seats are they available somewhere?
Instructions for the folding seats are in the canoe building course now
