The following are some points to remember:

  • Those wearing glasses are reminded to use an elastic sports holder to anchor their spectacles.

    PRACTICAL RAFTING TIPS
    All rafters will be given a safety briefing before the ride and will be shown basic backward and forward padding techniques. Always check that the helmets and life jackets provided fit you well and are not too tight or too loose.

    Your life jacket will buoy you in the eventuality of the raft overturning. If you've over-turned close to the river bank, don't use your raft paddle, as you may hit someone else. Do not attempt to use the paddle as a lever against rocks as you risk getting hit by it.

International Grading Scale of River Difficulty  Grade I   Moving water with a few waves and small ripples.  Grade II  Easy rapids with waves up to 1 meter and wide, clear, channels            that are obvious without scouting. Some maneuvering is required.  Grade III Rapids with high, irregular waves often capable of swamping an            open canoe. Narrow passages that often require complex            maneuvering.           Rapids may require scouting from shore. Boaters in kayaks should            have the ability to Eskimo Roll.  Grade IV  Long, difficult rapids with constricted passages and often            turbulent waters. Scouting from shore is necessary, and           conditions make rescue difficult. Generally not possible for           open canoes. Boaters in kayaks should have the ability to Eskimo           Roll.  Grade V   Extremely difficult, long and very violent rapids. Highly           congested routes which always should be scouted from shore. Rescue           conditions are difficult, and there is significant hazard to life           in the event of a mishap. Ability to Eskimo roll is essential for           boaters in kayaks.  Grade VI  Water is at the extremes of navigability. Nearly impossible           and very dangerous. For teams of experts only. Close study must be           made ahead of time and all precautions taken.
