Staged
We staged the crocs on this cliff above the gorge, slightly downstream of the falls. Then, the guides (top) and the participants (below) worked together to abseil the boats down the cliff into the gorge. With 15 boats, it took about 75 minutes to abseil them down for an average of about 5 minutes per croc. If you're counting along at home, that's 1 hour and 15 minutes of hard work in the baking sun, not to mention the time for portage prior.
One of the boats pinned James to a rock. The life jacket he was wearing probably saved him from a serious injury.
