Good job being a good dad. The better halfs don't understand it, but that is exactly what you were. God had his hand on that day.

Found this thread on nor call anglers, I read through all of it, this guy tried x 30 closed foam made a mess, he concluded it needs to be added during the manufacturing process. Mostly everyone concluded, stuffedd your kayak with pool noodles, put enough noodles that your kayak doesn't sink stern or bow first.

It's been a little while since i've posted much on this site. Glad you guys made it back safe and determined the what caused the water leak. And i'm very surprised that your gear was still there. Even the wallet and keys.
BTW, i'm the guy who scooped you and your son out of the water.

I had a recent trip where I ended up with over 3" of water in my PA...I guessed about 15-20 gallons...120-180 pounds! the water all came in through the rear hatch. the bait tank was not draining out through the scupper cleanly. I didn't notice until I was really tired trying to get back in against a tide...
like you, I suddenly realized that much of the emergency gear i carry is not going save the yak, just the people. That said, i don't need all that empty space in the hull for anything, so now its full of pool noodles. |
