Accident on the Clodagh, Co. Waterford last April

<< < (2/2)

Simon R.:
could have been avoided with a simple throw bag. pretty sad.

fityounggranny:
I was under the impress that there were throw bags on the river,
(i.e. that the two paddlers on the water had them)

And that the third person (survivor), was not proficient at rope skills, so it was deemed not necessary for him to carry one.

This of course still begs the question of why they hadn't given him one of the ropes as the others went on.
One can only assume that they simply hadn't thought of it.

Either way, it is an unfortunate mess.
