    Im training to be a river guide in a week, this is very useful information! I've literally never been rafting so I'm nervous lol. I'm trying to learn a bit before my official training period.

    Great info. Except that 1 cubic metre of water weighs exactly 1 tonne, not 'over one tonne'. At least that's how it works in countries that use sensible measurements systems.
