Try using a paddle float with a stirrup setup. Most sea kayaking
books will cover this type of re-entry.

I'm a pretty big guy and I worry about needing to do a solo deep water remount.
Even though I have a fairly wide boat, (Loon 160 now, earlier a Coleman Scanoe
and Folbot Super), Any unassisted attempt to remount has always flipped my
boat. (I pracitced in my swimming pool this Summer). The only thing that worked
fairly well was to tie off a cheap, half inflated swim ring and use it as a
step up. It worked, but it was ungarceful and I don't know how well it would
work in waves.
