How can anyone that doesn't know how to swim operate a kayak without having his PFD on?



I also wonder what kind of instructions he received at Catamaran in regards to safety if any.

He was a guest of someone's for a company party at that resort. He wasn't issued a kayak, when one came available, one person got off and another got on, the pfd was tucked under the bungee straps but was not the correct size for him. It was for a child. But he chose to take the kayak out anyways and with inexperience in kayaking and swimming paid the ultimate price. My parents and sister were guests as well to that event. They seen the guy getting his face painted that day.
