At risk of hijacking . . . just a little safety story! We were on vacation and rented seadoos, the three-seater kind. All the other couples attached the stretchy key-clip to the person on the back, with the idea that if they fell off the watercraft would stop. Ian wasn't much on that idea. We headed out in some rough waters, and on our way back home again it had turned into three-foot seas. I was on the back, arms around Ian and holding him for dear life with my eyes screwed shut because the waves were coming over us like crazy (and permagrin on my face 'cause it was a crazy fun ride!) when all of a sudden we lurched hard to the right. I went under, figuring Ian was also going under, but when I swam up to the surface again Ian was still on board and sort of far away! At any rate, turned out it was a good idea that he had not attached the killswitch to me - at the speed we were going we would have both been stranded in waters that would have made it very hard to swim for the seadoo. So if you're going out in the ocean, remember my little story
