Default Rescue Safety Scam Instead of Sponsons

Thank you very much. We could have saved over 1,500 American citizens
who died agonizing deaths if we had followed Sea Kayaker Magazine and
Canoe and Kayak Magazine recommending sponsons, quoted onwww.sponsonguy.com;
including 200 American children like the Darlington School boys.

Authors like the very astute John Dowd and Derek Hutchinson were also
very honest about sponsons, quoted onwww.sponsonguy.com

Unfortunately sponsons allowed anyone to rescue themselves in any
canoe or kayak, like SAR groups with rescue craft made from a bunch of
kids' foam noodles clipped to the beam ends of a cheap, sit-in
recreational kayak. The rescue scams with endless
numbers of ridiculous rescue ideas, in a bait and switch scam model,
were as obvious as the Iraq War scam.

Thanks again, Tim
