You probably carry more safety gear than anyone here yet equipment failure, unexpected events, and panic still caused a dangerous incident. I think everyone that reads your story will learn something that may help them better prepare for an emergency situation on the water. I took my flotation out of my previous kayak and haven't put it inside my new kayak yet, which I will do now before my next outing. Thanks for reminding us how fast things can go bad and glad you and your son made it home.

Thank you for posting! We are venturing out into an unforgiving environment. No fish is worth risking not returning to your family that is depending on you for so much. Bad enough to face an emergency alone, I can't imagine how it must have been being out there with your son. HUGE kudos for being prepared. Your son just learned the importance of proper preparation and planning for the unexpected.
