Some boatmen will rig a flip line under their boat that runs from oar lock to oar lock. 

Some will run the flip line from bow to stern. 

Some boatmen will rig slack lines, a 20 foot length of free rope, floating in the water and tied to a corner of the boat. There may be four slack lines tied to four corners of a single raft. 

Check with your boatman about flip lines and slack lines, as not all boatmen use them.
