Mike Folkerts dewaters a canoe while Dale McFarlin stabilizes the vessel during a cold water paddle craft class held in Juneau, Alaska, June 22, 2019.

Water left inside a vessel after the operator has fallen into the water and successfully reentered their craft decreases stability and maneuverability, which can increase the risk of recapsizing.
