The creek boat quandary

There’s a new split in the world of creek boat design, so ponder this while you sip your morning coffee

Fly directly to the put-in, paddle the 130 km Rondu Gorge with a couple hundred class V huge volume rapids

This event has been on my radar for a few years, having dipped my toe in the white water a few times.

I’m reading the water on auto-pilot, watching for boils, bubbles and breaks in eddy lines.

Early in my return to paddling, I read an online piece about Mums returning to paddling after having a baby.
