Report of Kayak rescue in Netherlands

Here is a report of a kayak rescue this past June in the Netherlands. Interesting bit is that they have commentary from the participants after the event. Very interesting to see thier thinking and the dynamics of the group:

Kayak Rescue Report

What a very informative and thought provoking article! This should be required reading for anyone who paddles with a group, with or without a formal trip leader. And it goes without saying, mandatory reading for trip leaders too. Another reminder that experience is not always enough, and you can NEVER get too much practice at rescues!
Thanks, Goni, very much appreciated.
