| Discussion 1: When my paddle snapped in half, I unclamped the broken piece (5"long) and put it in my jacket pocket. I then slid the two paddle halves together and attempted to continue my journey. The paddle blades now had the ability to rotate all 360 degrees relative to each other. So I began concentrating on using my hand grip to feather the paddle blades independently: FAIL. I kept spreading my hands appart allowing the two halves of my paddle to come apart. I fell in. Eventually I got to Cheap Beach (between Swell and the Hatch parking) paddling one half of the paddle like an OC paddle and sitting on the other half. | Discussion 1: When my paddle snapped in half, I unclamped the broken piece (5"long) and put it in my jacket pocket.

| When I was hit from behind by a windsurfer on a big day in the hatch I lost my paddle, and had to swim in 250 meters or so with the ski. I just hugged the ski with one arm and crawl stroked / kicked. Slow, but stable and steady progress. In that situation I would normally have used my tow line so I could swim properly and just pull the ski, but it was being used as a laundry line at Carter's place. | When I was hit from behind by a windsurfer on a big day in the hatch I lost my paddle, and had to swim in 250 meters or so with the ski.
