搜寻的朋友一定注意自身安全, 没有足够的措施不要贸然下河
 
唉,这种事故太不幸了,让人难以接受。

他们的小船在Quebec一侧发现, 有没有可能是他们在向对岸划的过程中,被河流带动往下游走,而越接近Quebec一侧,他们被水流带的就越接近急流区, 而急流区上端水流一般有个突然加速的流段,这种区域看似平静, 但实际上水流很急,他们划得速度抵消不了水流的速度,于是就被带进急流?那侧的激流间有些废弃的建筑和其他障碍,形态复杂,这种地形的激流,经常有复杂的回流区,有没有可能是被卷进激流后,被水流压住, 又被这些废弃的建筑和其他障碍阻挡住了?所以这么长时间了,在下流也没有发现踪迹。
 
大家一起收集点钱 租个个头/马力大一点的船 + 救生衣 + 对讲机,然后雇一个有执照的救生员未免不是个好主意
 
Yes. It has to be professional "Search and Rescue".
 
26日中午志愿行动最新消息----今天11点到2点之间与一位来自OU的志愿者孟洁同学先搜索了Quebec这一侧的部分地带(Hulll and Alymer). 总长度大概2公里。在Hull搜寻其间收到热心许先生(钓鱼爱好者)的电话:警察发现小艇的地方就是以前他常去钓鱼的附近 (Lucene and Vanier),那里是个废弃了的水电站,水流异常湍急,但在它的下流一侧,有个静弯,与主河分离,建议我们去那里看看。

我们去看了以后,也是感觉被冲到那个静弯底部的可能性比较大,怎奈当时无法下水,只是观察了一阵表面。

废弃了的水电站:

静弯的位置就是在2, 3之间连一条直线更靠近2的位置(在这张图上看和主流没分离,实际上是分离的)

Divers to resume search for 2 men



Two Chinese exchange students presumed drowned



By Brendan Kennedy, The Ottawa CitizenMay 26, 2009



Divers from the Ottawa Police Marine Unit will resume their search in the Ottawa River today for the bodies of two Chinese exchange students presumed drowned after their inflatable dinghy capsized Saturday evening in the frigid and fast-moving water.
Police are working with the Chinese Embassy to notify the families of the two men, in their 20s, whose names have not yet been released.
The licence plate on a 1999 white Audi, which police said belonged to one of the men, is registered to Fanzheng Meng.
Media reports said Meng studied computers at Algonquin College, but neither police nor the college would confirm that Monday. The college's International Education Program has a China office and the computer studies program has an exchange partnership with a Chinese university.
The men are believed to have launched their boat from Britannia Beach -- where they were celebrating a birthday at nearby Lakeside Gardens -- and were apparently attempting to paddle the boat across to the Gatineau side.
They were last seen in the yellow dinghy going through the Deschênes Rapids at about 8:15 p.m. Saturday. Police recovered their boat east of the rapids on Sunday.
At Britannia Beach, near where the men reportedly launched, a City of Ottawa warning sign states: "Danger to windsurfers and boaters: Powerful rapids around the bend to the right. Swift river current in the channel."
Searchers from the Ottawa Fire Department water rescue team and Ottawa police searched the river and both shorelines until midnight Saturday, then picked up the search at about 8 a.m. Sunday. Five boats, an airplane equipped with a heat-seeking system, at least 12 searchers and dogs were involved in the search, which was called off around 1:30 p.m. Sunday.
Police could not say Monday whether the men had life-jackets in the boat, or whether alcohol was involved.
Sgt. Dan Beauchamps of the police marine unit said it's imperative for boaters to know the conditions in which they are boating and the equipment they will need to do it safely.
"(They should) understand at this time of the year the water is still very cold, the water is high, and the current is a lot stronger than it is in July or August," Beauchamps said.
"A little inflatable dinghy is not a very sea-worthy vessel," he said. "Especially to be boating in something (like the Deschênes Rapids.)"
Beauchamps said the Ottawa River's current can be "treacherous" at this time of year, and that it's easy to get into trouble in fast-moving water when you're not an experienced boater. He said all boaters should wear a life-jacket and be equipped with a whistle and other means of communication.
 
现在警察那边的计划到底是什么有人知道吗?
