I went through Saturday. I'm guessing it was lost Friday or early Saturday. It would have been hard for a group to miss the gear. It was laying on the ground right where you walk out of the pool.

I'll take a stab at it:

2. Too much slack in the rope.
3. She isn't ready/isn't in a body position to pull. Arms should be up.
