Paddle Practice In Pool

Paddling Practice
2 out of the 3 girls recruited so far were able to make the first practice. They practiced paddling together in sync, to one side, the other side etc.

At first, I wasn't sure if the boat would hold 4 girls at a time, but as you can see in this photo that they do fit OK. Only one slight hitch as the girl in the back kinda whacked the girl in the front with her paddle, but that is why we are practicing.

To give them an intuitive lesson on how a kayak is moved around, I had them paddling the little kayak and they did great till it was almost time to go. Then they "accidentally" fell in several times.

And fell in a couple of more times....
