ALWAYS WEAR A PFD! Sad news from San Diego

Sad news from Mission Bay In San Diego. I hope this rental place starts instructing their customers in proper safety.

Inexperiemced kayaker that can't swim who isn't wearing a PFD ...that's a perfect disaster cocktail. Very sad, especially since it seems such a preventable tragedy.

An exchange student, no less. Tragic.

I wondered if there was a safety briefing before they actually let him get in the kayak. According to the media, Shanun had rented the kayak from the Catamaran Resort Hotel, 3999 Mission Boulevard. Very sad news. RIP
