: Hi Dan ~
: What's a canoe-style re-entry?

: Jim

climb over the gunnel from amidship, while holding the opposite gunnel to brace the boat from turning over. At least that is the way I do it. You sorta pull the boat underneath you as you kick like heck to flop back in. I would think a kayak, you would straddle from the rear and climb in.
