Rob,

You're actually advising to not use perimeter lines? Really?

I guess the world is full of loners, but pretty much everyone else agrees that perimeter lines add safety, these are not WW boats.

Spend a few months doing rescue boat ops for paddling groups and I bet your opinion will change. A wet kayak without lines is VERY difficult to manage in a rescue.
