Safety First / Paddle float self rescue video for large SOTs

Excellent video, including numerous ways to upright your beast of a fishing machine! Never thought that the touring boat methods of self rescue with a paddle float could be used for SOTs (or was necessary). Good to know. Perimeter deck lines are a good idea too, but be careful of entanglement. You can easily lose a finger in rough water if they’re too tight or loose and you’re not careful. You’ll have to find a place on your boat behind the seat where you can secure a paddle to use as an outrigger with the paddle float. That will probably take some modification and PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE!!
