Ricketts Point was my first paddle with the Victorian Sea Kayak Club on a nice calm sunny morning. We paddled around Ricketts Point then down towards Mordialloc and back.
Techniques I practices were:
- fast turns around marker poles
- low brace
- rudder with elbow in
- fast stop - back paddling
- deep water re-entry to kayak (assisted)
It was a pleasant trip with experienced kayakers.
I was happy with my Mirage 580, its a nice fast boat. We had coffee and pastries at the Ricketss Point Tea House Cafe afterwards.
I fitted a paddle leash after the trip.
