Hey I was reading an article on Sprayskirts that suggested hooking a little whiffle ball onto the grab ring, or taping it all up. I was wondering if anyone does this, and what its benefits are?

I would Imagine it makes it easier to grab hold of on a wet exit; I just can't figure out for the life of me how to get a whiffle ball onto that grab ring, or why just the plastic tube thats on it already isn't enough.

Thanks for any help on the subject.

The first time I needed to do a wet exit in cold water with heavy gloves on I was surprised that I could not feel the grab loop at all so I simply grabbed where it usually is and pulled. Luckily, I happened to have it in my hand, but after that trip I took a practice golf ball (just like a wiffle ball except smaller), cut a slot in it, slipped it onto my grab loop, and laced a shoe string aroud it to secure it the grab loop.
