I didn't make it down to the river until this afternoon. I've got a huge bunch of things going on that I'll talk about more when I have more time.
It was raining when I got down there, but otherwise calm (i.e., it was a "soft spring shower"). So I pulled out the K1 for the first time in several months. The rain stopped some twenty minutes in.
I paddled for an hour, and kept the boat upright, though I felt awfully unstable much of the time. Even so, I had stretches where I was able to relax and rotate fully and let the boat do its thing. I do think confidence and competence will come with time in that boat, and it sounds like a good use of a hot Memphis summer.
