It's been a while since I've posted here. It's also been a while since the kayak was last in the water. My step-daughter has recently discovered she loves kayaking and has been going out for a paddle with friends in our Q-Kayaks double. So, a couple of weeks ago, I decided to tag a long with them. I had to go anyway to help them get the kayak off the roof of the Subaru and didn't feel like sitting in the car waiting for them to get back.
The kayak is very tippy, or I am, it's also a tight squeeze, so my step-daughter was told by her mum to keep an eye on me, in case I capsized and couldn't get out.
Here's the result.
I was in the water for about fifteen minutes after the capsize, there was no way I would have been able to get back in the boat. It never once occurred to me at the time that Tingalpa Creek is known for Bull Sharks.
