Pin Kits for you Kayak, Canoe, SUP or Raft

 We only need to remember 1, 2, 3, and 4 to start building our own pin kit for our paddle craft. The type of paddle craft you use will also determine the size, weight, and strength of these rescue tools. For example, you have much more room to carry a large pin kit in a raft, where the lightest breaking strength is 3000 lbs (usually the prusik cord). On the other hand, in a small whitewater kayak, we're left with very little room to carry even the simplest pin kit. However, it can be done by minimizing the pin kit to the required breaking strength and ensuring crucial training to keep ourselves and the people we are with safe.
