    Not necessarily, if you remember to stay cool and do things slowly, gradually, and while thinking about keeping your balance with your legs on the sides. There’s no benefit in rushing when you reenter the boat.

    It doesn’t look that hard to me. Is getting back in on flat water easier? –Marco

    The presence of waves requires more attention since they rock the boat.

    Few people can get back in a traditional kayak, and not too many can do it with a sit on top either. This re entering looks pretty straightforward to me.
