North Water Rescue Stirrup

Getting back into your kayak after a wet exit is one of those skills that feels straightforward on a calm day and genuinely difficult when conditions are working against you.

The North Water Rescue Stirrup is designed to give you the mechanical advantage you need to haul yourself back onto your boat efficiently and with confidence. Sinking webbing pulls the foot loop down to where you need it in the water, while the neoprene cuff keeps the rest of the stirrup floating at the surface and neatly contained for storage. High visibility yellow webbing is easy to spot in murky or churned-up water when you're wet, cold, and working quickly to get back in the boat.

Length adjusts easily to suit different paddlers and boat heights, and the webbing can be marked at your preferred setting for faster, more consistent re-entries during training or in an actual rescue situation. The large thumb hook clips securely to deck lines or a PFD for rapid access, keeping the stirrup right where you need it without adding clutter to your setup. For sea kayakers, touring paddlers, and instructors running re-entry practice on Canadian coastal and inland waters, it's a compact, well-thought-out piece of safety kit that earns its place on every boat.
