Throw Bags
Someone else metnioned keeping a throw bag handy. I agree and highly recommend it. When I bought my boat about 8 years ago I already had a throw bag that I had used for white water canoeing. The bag came in handy once on the river when another of the canoes in our group went over. What is nice about the bag is that it is a nice size for clipping somewhere on a rail on your boat so that it is readily available. You can throw the bag much further than a PFD and it can be grabbed and used quickly.
