Hey Steve, sorry I wasn't trying to have a go (well sort of, but that's half the fun of the internet right :) ...). Just saying that I'd jump on something a bit (or a lot) more forgiving than that particular run to start with. I've paddled that section a few of times and wouldn't necessarily back myself to know exactly where the sieve is (and I know about it and would be looking for it). And if you accidentally head down the lead in to the river wide sieve, (which is really deceiving because it looks super nice and easy) you are pretty likely to drown. Also, should you come out of the raft, swimming the bouldery rapids in the snowies always carries at least some risk of foot entrapment, even on relatively mellow stuff, plus then there's logs and stuff... If it was me, I'd be starting out on the lower bit of the snowy (from the rafters put in road) or even from the Thredbo village down to Ngarigo or something first up.
