and I can't for the life of me figure out why you
think getting into and out of a kayak is EASIER than getting
into and out of a canoe.

Paddle out in 10' of water in your canoe, put on your snorkel and fins
and go snorkeling. Then get back in and paddle back. Then try in with
a SOT. Just one example.

Thanks I suppose to the Boy Scout camp of my youth, I can exit & reboard a
canoe with reasonable efficiency (and I have the merit badge to prove it
g); but I gotta admit, it isn't a piece o' cake.
