Spot sez: DON'T GET CAUGHT BETWEEN YOUR KAYAK AND SHORE!

Late the party (as usual), but there's lots to learn. After I stopped laughing* I noticed BOTH of them seemed a bit green to surf launches.

The first guy who did get out, launched on the beach side of his boat. He even pushed his boat out bow-to from the stern. :nono:
 If there was some formal training, I'm sure the first lesson would be "stay on the wave side" or "avoid getting between the boat and the beach."








*Laughing was allowed because he walked away. (that other landing wasn't funny)
