We have had a couple of times where getting a hold of a bow or stern line was very difficult. 
The following pictures show what I feel is a method that has the following advantages.
1) You can get them from either side of the boat.
2) The person in the kayak can get a hold of them
3) Being tucked under 1 point instead of 2 or 3 the whole line will come free except for the knotted end.
4) The lines shown are hi vis floating polypropylene rope 3/8 diameter

If you have any questions or need lines fell free to contact me any time from 8am-10pm
