Flat Paddle 1:46:00 [3] 14.5 km (7:19 / km)
shoes: Bathtub
Paddle with 3/4's of our Caffeinated team, now we have only got two people on the team that haven't met each other yet.
Met up near UWA and split up with Louise and Robbie in the yellow submarine, Rach and myself in Moby Dick. went for a loop down around Herrison Island and back.
The yellow submarine was a fair bit longer than Moby and I hope that was the reason that we couldn't stay anywhere near them. Otherwise it is going to be a very long Caffeinated.
All the way down to the narrows they had to stop and wait for us. Once we got past the narrows it flattened out enough for us to jump on their wash, neither boat was particularily easy to steer though so we were swerving all over the show trying to stay there. GPS gave an average of about 9km/hr through this section which is absoloutely trucking I thought.
We wash hung all teh way back to the narrows then once we got back in the rough stuff it became too hard adn we struck out by ourselves, Robbie may have been tiring since we seemed to hold them better through here, except when Rach stopped paddling to squeal.
Felt pretty good at the end, a slight wrist niggle that was probably due to me adjusting my stroke to avoid hitting Rach. She forgot her helmet but I only got her 5 times. Pretty good I think.
Went back to Robbies to chat about Caffeinated. Never too late to start planning. Then went to Andre's to chat about XPD. Never too early to start planning.
