All excellent suggestions. Getting a whistle hadn't occurred to me (so thanks!), I already have a first aid kit and I got a dry bag today.
As for the anchor, I've heard mixed reviews. I hear they can be dangerous when used in a kayak in moving water. For that reason, I've heard that if you want to use an anchor, you should use something like a rock or a cotton bag of rocks. Something that you wouldn't mind cutting loose if need be.
Is that a serious concern? And I assume it really only applies to moving water?
Thanks.
