Super helpful! The same strap used to tie the Yak down to the truck, needs to be transferred to the yak while in the water. GOT IT!!!!

I have a sit in kayak and I worry about not being able to get myself over such a big lip, I haven’t flipped.. yet

For sure try it in a safe spot. There are some other methods that work well for sit in where you hook your leg over but it can be hard depending on how closed off the cockpit is. If possible, it could be easier to swim your kayak to shore, but that is not always an option.

There is a method to roll yourself back up, right? I would love to see that tutorial

It wouldn't apply to this style of kayak due to it being open as you need to be inside to brace your knees keeping you in, have a look for white water kayak rolls you will see some good videos for that

My kayak flip over once so I just climb on top of it and paddle back to shore on a upside down kayak.
