Equipment
The strap was supposed to remain attached to the deck which would then part from the boat. What happened was the strap came off in my hand and the deck stayed put.

Actually, I could have condensed the whole dreary story down to those two lines. But then where's the fun in that.

On a school holiday we did canoeing and nearly everyone succumbed to the rough edge of the fiberglass when doing this.

Fuck me if canoe's aren't designed for tall people.

Whilst i loved the canoe/kayaking experience, i bloody well hated twating my upper legs on the fibre glass when trying to extricate myself - upside down or otherwise.
