Well, clearly, canoeing, kayaking, and whitewater rafting are activities that incorporate an element of risk, but to come back to the premise of your question, the original act, as I understood it, was to deal with commercial vessels. The passenger on a ferry or a cruise ship is not assuming that he's going to get wet during his trip. He's basically assuming a pretty standard set of conditions for his trip. The people in this sector--and this is why I don't think they should be covered under this amendment, under the original act--are actively entering the activity with the assumption that they are going to participate in it, that they will run some degree of risk, and that they may be involved in the propulsion of the vessel through paddling or steering the vessel.
We just think that this was the wrong place to cover their activities.
