My husband, 2 sons, and I went on a
vacation and took our canoes.
We had traveled downstream for
about an hour and a half when I noticed some water leaking into our
canoe. We signaled the boys who pulled alongside us at the bank
to see what was wrong. We thought we would have to hike and
carry the canoe for several miles back to our campsite. One of
the boys had a first aid kit and inside was a roll of duct tape.
We pulled the canoe from the water and found a small tear in the
left front. We dried the spot with a cloth and left the canoe
in the sun for about an hour. We placed some duct tape over the
tear and re-entered the water. We were able to remain afloat
and get back to our base camp before nightfall. |
