There’s the battle of the bulge, the battle of Hastings and the battle to go faster. Today was the battle to go faster. Conditions for trying to paddle fast were good. No wind at all. The ocean gently rolling with a two metre swell and the water brown all the way to the east side of the Tollgate Islands after yesterdays heavy rain event.
Our beach has been eroded again by storms so even though we launched three hours before high tide there was barely any beach left and, had we gone any later, we might have launched from the parking lot! Out to the Tollgate Islands, over to Yellow Rocks and back home. My average speed at eight kilometres/hour but I could not keep that up for 40 kilometres. Wouldn’t it be nice if I could?
