Tourists Oblivious to Their Fate – 188 viewsWe know our schedule has slipped and we'll have to fight the ebb back in. Rather than panicking, we stop to take some pictures.
|
|
A Little Wet Work, Part 1 – 187 viewsYou'll have to click on these pics until you get the full sized versions so you can see the details. In this one, you'll see we have our first swimmer. Notice the Coast Guard cutter standing by (by coincidence, I think).
|
|
A Little Wet Work, Part 2 – 197 viewsThat's Tom from our group in the green boat in front of me. Chris Wood on the left. Tom Pogson on the right heading toward the trouble. Looks like Tom Bergh (one of our coaches) is giving the swimmer a lift out in the background.

|
A Little Wet Work, Part 3 – 250 viewsSame incident unfolding.
|
|
A Little Wet Work, Part 4 – 244 viewsAlmost home and dry.
|
|
The Source of Our Troubles – 254 viewsIt was this little point that was giving us all this grief. Doesn't look so bad, does it. Notice the Coast Guard chopper patrolling in the upper right corner of the frame.
|
|
Part Deux Part 1 – 253 viewsThe next chapter. This was after I had been kicked back. Tom is doing a cowboy back into his boat, under Jen Kleck's watchful eye. In the background, an unknown swimmer is being tended to by, I think, Tom Bergh.
|
|
Part Deux Part 2 – 232 viewsSame incident unfolding. I'm not sure exactly how many people were actually out of their boats at this point. Two, maybe three.
|
|
Safety Skiff – 202 viewsOur safety skiff takes its first passenger back to the yacht club. Paddle's over!
|
|
On Our Way Back to the Yacht Club – 194 viewsWe all trundle back to the beach in Horseshoe Bay. I wish I could say that I made it around Lime Point on my own, but I finally had to get a tow from Nigel Robinson to make it through. (Let the europaddle vs. greenland stick debate begin!)
|
|
Happy Faces 1 – 200 viewsOur classmate Thomas and our class coach Tom Bergh, who had a busy day out at Lime Point.
|
|
Happy Faces 2 – 195 viewsNige, Thomas, Tom (I really like these shots, fuzzy as they are.)
