    摘要: A multifunctional apparatus and method for a light watercraft such as a kayak or canoe comprising multiple selectable configurations and multiple selectable corresponding modes for portaging, water self-rescue, and watercraft stabilization. Portaging modes include a flexible strap encircling the watercraft with one or more inflatables attached and positioned on the carrier for vast combinations of watercrafts, carriers, and terrains. Self-rescuing modes include inflatables attached selectably: to the self-rescuer; to and in combination with a buoyant object which is encircled with the watercraft by the strap; or to the strap which is positioned selectably about the watercraft, or under the self-rescuer. Mode selected at the self-rescue time under known physical, mental, and environmental conditions with backups available. Stabilizing modes include selectable strap positioning about the watercraft, and selectable number and positioning of attached inflatables, adaptable as conditions change.

    摘要: An inflatable carrying device of watercraft by a single human carrier comprising one or more inflatables having a shape to enable it to be secured to one or both shoulders of the carrier, and a shear and tensile strength to support at least in part the watercraft. Various embodiments of the inflatables include an incurvate side about 240-300 degrees to secure to the shoulders, a length extending at least transversely across the seating area of the watercraft, a length about the width of one shoulder of the carrier, and a height to provide forward visibility for the carrier to avoid obstacles. The device makes possible single human transport of watercraft which lack a design structure for solo transport such as a kayak having a cockpit and a sit-on-top kayak.

    摘要: An inflatable device for water self-rescue comprising one or more buoyant inflatables having a substantial size and shape to secure to one or both lower extremities of a self-rescuer, or to one or both shoulders of a single human carrier for transport of watercraft for another embodiment. Shapes of the various inflatable embodiments include an incurvate side, triangular prism, streamlined, and to encompass a portion of the lower extremity. Embodiments include one or more straps to secure the inflatable to the lower extremity, another inflatable, or the watercraft. The device secured to the lower extremity increases water-area and buoyancy to more effectively engage the lower body muscles while performing a standard or similar self-rescue maneuver to aid reboarding watercraft or swimming to safety. The device makes possible single human transport of watercraft which lack a design structure for solo transport such as a kayak.
