Canoe livery operator calls for warning lights or flags after river deaths
CINCINNATI (WKRC) - 17-year-old James Ward, whose body was found on the Little Miami River on Monday night, went missing on Saturday.
And a short time ago on Tuesday, a body was pulled from the Great Miami in Hamilton that is believed to be a kayaker who's been missing since Sunday.
In both cases, the rivers were moving faster than usual due to heavy rains.
It goes without saying that you should wear a life preserver, but even if it goes without saying, experts are saying it anyway, because not everyone does.
That's just one safety precaution. Another could involve warning lights or flags.
If you're a river veteran, you can tell if the water is more dangerous than usual.
“We live with the river on a daily basis, and know it on a personal level,” said Gary Morgan.
But if you're a river rookie, you may be clueless before you go in, whether it be for swimming or boating.
Neither the swimmer in the Little Miami on Saturday nor the kayaker in the Great Miami on Sunday were wearing life jackets.
“Kayaking has become such a big sport. A lot of people buy a kayak, but not a life preserver. You don't have to take a safety class. A lot of people out on the river don't know about it. They need to inform themselves about safety and it's really about wearing a life jacket. If you have a coast guard approved life jacket, you'll be 100 percent, 99 percent safe even if you do capsize,” said Gary Morgan, who runs Morgan's Outdoor Adventures, Canoe and Kayak trips.
Life preservers are part of those journeys.
But not everybody takes an organized outing. Morgan says he'd like to see a system of safety warning flags or lights at canoe liveries and public access points
Green would mean that he river is safe. Orange would be more aware and cautious. Red would mean the river is dangerous and officially off limits.
“Somebody putting themselves in and not knowing the body of water is not a good idea. They need to seek information,” said Morgan.
Morgan says canoe liveries could put up the flags at their facilities. Government agencies would have to do so at public access points.
