wednesday july 30 - kayak pratfalls




it's about 7am and we have to get moving early today to try and get to the boat early before the wind kicks up. we need to take care of the big jib sail and continue with food inventory and a little more cleanup.

we got stranged on the boat! mitchell took us out in his dinghy but he was really busy with other people and then had to pull the dinghy for repairs. another sailor said he'd come by and pick us up in his dinghy on the way to shore but we saw him go by. guess he forgot. after much discussion about what to do we decided to inflate jim's kayak. then i inflated my kayak. what ensured was pure slap stick comedy as we tried to figure out the best approach for getting into them. we laughed so hard our sides hurt. but we made it, paddled around and finally loaded up everything and rowed to shore.
