Kenny Howell: Messing Around In Boats

"A Common Fear"

What’s the first thing you think of when you imagine yourself out on the ocean in a thin, plastic kayak and sealed in with a taunt spray skirt? If you are like me you think about capsizing—you think about drowning.

In Kenny’s second video column, "A Common Fear,"  he tackles head-on a deep-seated worry that often goes unmentioned, especially by beginners.

Kenny’s special guest is John Lull, a kayaking expert (and a local resident), who is the author of a standard text in the field, Seakayaking: Safety & Rescue.
