The paddle was probably as calm and uneventful as the weather. So not much to report. Never really is actually, unless you, like me, embellish the tale with all kinds of fanciful nonsense. You actually have to be there to savour the pleasure.
Statistically speaking the Paddlers were, in no order of preference or ability:
The Wavemaster (in a plastic tub) minus calamari, The Hun minus calamari (she lost her bag in the water). How to you do that?, Hendrik (exhausted from a weeks hard work, or play - not sure which one) , Barbarella showing off on her Fenn, Viv (lifejacket mannequin), another guy and girl (don't know their names), Great Chris White (with undersea cable in tow) and I.
Great Chris White reported that Viv was attacked by a 27 metre Great White (no really) which he singelhandedly fended off with his electric tail. I think that he may have seen a jellyfish or Silke's Calimari bag.
The rest of us had a really ordinary and gentle paddle up to Steve's house and back.
When we got back Great Chris White proceeded to scare away all of Derek's customers by regaling with tales of all the sea kayaks eaten by his bretheren in False Bay to date. Derek is suing.
I by the way, am trying out surf - ski's...this week. Maybe I will let you know more about this endevour...
