Novice Trip on the Dan! What a blast for new boaters to be able to paddle with experienced folks like Bob and Elliot, Vince, Nate,Joe, Dan, Lorraine, Ken. The group also had moptop Lucy as mascot. The morning rain and cool temps didn’t hurt the fun at all. Fourteen boaters with differing skill levels were generous with each other and offered helpful hints and instruction. “Keep your feet in the trough to surf correctly” and “what’s the difference between a C to C vs a Sweep roll?”.
