An interesting row. We started off with what looked like we were disturbing a high-society dinner party taking place on a yacht that was moored up. Don’t mind us. I was placed on stroke. It was my first time with the new leathers. SEXY. I came close to breaking a tholpin in all the excitement.
We stopped to pick up a come-and-tryer. That didn’t last long. Soon we were heading out downstream. A trio of jet skiers behaved nicely for once. There was also a trio of kids out in their kayaks making the most of the late summer sun.
Some weirdo dude in one of those hydro things was poncing around. I wasn’t alone in hoping that he would come a cropper and get his hair wet. He got his hair wet.
We had a bit of a hippie shit moment observing some jellyfish. An absurd conversation took place regarding the relative intelligence of jellyfish compared to other aquatic sea creatures.
The water was very still downstream. I got to cox for a short while, back towards the sailing club.
