There is a story that explains why Jimmy wears a $10 child's PFD this trip, but it will remain untold to protect the guilty. Together 35 years now of which I regret none. On-river one minute after launching. It didn't take much longer than that for this rock to blemish the maiden run of Duncan's cataraft. We stopped a few minutes later down river to un-jam the oarlock. As with most shakedown cruises, there are a couple of glitches. The Star oar-mounts/locks being the main culprits.
