Make to wear life jackets, never wear the straps of chest waders over your shoulders while in boat. Wait it out on shore if conditions get bad. Very tragic day, Mike, Mark (brothers) and Paul Gracie, never to be forggotten. They were in a 12ft aluminum boat with no motor duck hunting, waves got first, then the gear they were wearing next, even before the cold killed them. All three drowned, very sad day indeed.
