Using painters to improvise a swim bag attachment

[@TN.70]

Thank you. I have to do it in my canoe.

You are welcome

Tempted to adopt that full time so my swimline can be used as a spare throw line as well (currently rethreaded so not ideal as a throw line)

[@outdoorinstruction]

What a great idea. I'd encourage having slightly thicker painters so they are very strong in case you need to pull on them to unpin your boat.. having this pre-set up would be wise.

hope you boys check for redds before you launch at this time of year

Redds??

A much better solution to using your belay sling as a swim line.
Keep your belay sling in your PFD.
