No tinnies with outboard motors here. A yellow kayak for 2 was today's ocean going vessel. Our safety briefing was a bit more detailed than yesterdays, the chance of drowning was obviously higher. Nice to see some water wise in action! One of us was fairly confident as she used to belong to North Avon Canoe Club so the phrase 'she'll be alright' definitely applied here. Most men opt for the back seat, some may say the key spot, as this seat has the foot controls for the rear rudder. Being outback though the duties don't end there, oh no. The bod in the rear seat has to synchronize paddle action with up front. So the gauntlet was down from the former canoe goer.
On route to the bay's islands we made a few stops at tiny secluded beaches for either food or a quick dip to cool down. It was clear after the first hour or so we were gunna 'feel the burn' the following day! This was a bingo wing and back workout if ever I had felt one! Will I be able to lift my tea cup tomorrow?
