Do you need to know how to swim?

Answer
No! (Except on advanced and expert trips.) Each person will be fitted with a Type-V Coast Guard-approved personal flotation device (life jacket) to be worn while on the river at all times. This life jacket is designed to float the wearer on his/her back with his/her head out of the water. Guests are instructed on the proper use of this life jacket in an orientation talk before departure. It does help to have some knowledge of swimming, especially in some of the more aggressive sections.
