I appreciate you 'hating' carrying kit that only does one job but, if it's your own canoe pinned mid-river and you want to set up a belay on the bank to rescue it, your sling is not much use to you attached to the pinned boat. I carry ALL my rescue kit on my person for that very reason. Food for thought?
I absolutely agree that caring rescue kit on your person is essential. I carry inside my BA enough equipment to make a 4:1 pulley system. On top of that, I carry another two sets of 3:1 in or on the boat to help speed up rescue response times.. thanks for your input and I really appreciate your comment and thinking.
