2. Rain cape?


I avoid using rain capes (ponchos) while canoeing. Someone once
advised me against them, on the grounds that they can get you in a
tangle in emergency situations. It seemed to make sense. So I carry a
lightweight waterproof jacket and trousers/pants to wear when canoeing
in the rain (which I had to do a couple of days ago)!
