It's been probably 20 years ago that a group of paddlers completed section 4 Chattooga, and were making that fla****er paddle to take-out. One guy in a kayak dropped back, and, apparently suffering a heart attack, rolled over. At some point later another group of paddlers came upon the overturned kayak, assuming it was a boat lost on the river, rolled it over and found a dead man still in it. I no longer remember the name of the victim but I know the guy who rolled the kayak up. If this is the incident I'm thinking of I was on Section III that day with a Coastal Canoists trip.I beleive the raft that turned the kayak back upright might have been other members of the same Coastals group on their annual Smokies summer week affair. I'll bet that incident put a major freeze on the "group camaraderie" to say the least. Paul Second answer is a question to our Canadian members: you know the definition of kayak disease at it applies to the Inuit? Tom McCloud |
