Cool! -- thanks, Ross.

I have to put a plug in for the Outer Island and other lean, narrow boats with low aft decks because they make these techniques much easier. I barely learned to roll in my Pygmy Arctic Tern one season, then built my Outer Island over the winter, and had no problem rolling the O.I. upon first taking it out in the spring. In fact, I had totally forgotten the much-emphasized 'hip snap', and rolled up with ease without it. Laying sideways in the water, sculling, and bringing myself back up is easy, and I haven't had much instruction and haven't practiced much, either (although I need to practice these maneuvers in wavier conditions...)
