In Response To: Additonal Rigging Musings (Brian Nystrom)

: After building an SOF boat and using Greenland-style rigging with tightening
: toggles, I've discovered that it's vastly superior to bungee cord for
: rescue purposes. The paddle slips right in without a hitch and when the
: toggles are slid apart, it's LOCKED in position. With a Greenland paddle,
: it makes a great outrigger when you want to rest, eat lunch or dig
: something out of the boat - no float necessary. With a euro paddle, your
: options are more limited, but it still works better for paddle float
: rescues than bungee cord does.
