At long last! Day 4 arrives and we are able to do an open water trip back to Laguna Lake. D'Arcy and Marna are seen shredding Laguna Lake. Marna is one of the most experienced ACA trainers on the West Coast. And D'Arcy. Well, D'Arcy is a natural paddler and taught us all a thing or two about wet exit and reentry, paddling technique, etc. Main APW Picture Page . Back to Day 1 , Day 2 , Day 3 .

Congregating back at Laguna, we're ready for our trial-by-water. We'll see if our adaptions actually work, or if our boats will sink. John, Ernest, John, and Virginia wait the word. |
Hmmmm, who's the wag who moved the poster to the Port-A-Pottie? |
Fittin up the boats. |
D'Darcy arrives and begins the lake-prep process. |
Marna does a high-sign with a paddle. |
Chillin in the sun! |
The firest paddlers launch and take a trip thru the weeds. |

|
D'Arcy is ready before we were... As usual.... |
Marna waits. |
Hi Mom! |
|
Final paddle check. |
|
|
|
Oh, Geez, what a mug! |
Sittin on the Dock of the Bay. Well, actually, the launch ramp at Laguna Lake. We learned a new launch technique: one launcher sits with butt on concrete and legs over the boat to stabilize the boat, while the other launcher works the back. |
Note my kayaking hat.... |
|
|
Heh, it's Marna and D'Arcy! |
|
That's quite the turn! |
|
Nice rudder job.... |
...and perfectly in sync.... |
The open-cockpit Neckys work great! |
